I look into the mirror and see my own beauty;
I see the Truth of the universe revealing itself to me.
I rise in the sky as the morning Sun. Do not be surprised-
Every particle of creation is my own form.

What are the holy spirits? - My essence revealed.
And the human body? - The vessel of my own form.
What is the ocean that encircles the world? -
A drop of my abundant Grace;
And the purest light that fills every soul? -
A spark of my own illumination.

What is the water that grants eternal life? -
A drop of my divine nectar.
And the breath that brings the dead back to life? -
A puff of my breath, the breath of all life.

I am Light itself, reflected in the heart of everyone.
I am the treasure of the Divine Name,
the shining Essence of all things.

From the highest heavens to the bedrock of the earth
All is but a shadow of my splendor.

If I dropped the veil covering my true essence
The world would be lost in a flash of brilliant light.
