1499
Alas, when my Lord says nothingTo my heart,
My heart feels miserable,
And when my Lord says something
To my mind,
My mind feels miserable.
I ask my Lord,
“How can I have such a miserable fate?”
My Lord tells me
That I have such a miserable fate
Because my heart has not studied
Oneness-lesson,
And my mind has not studied
Illumination-lesson.
