Was I not thine when Allah spoke the word
 Which formed from smoke the sky?
 Were not our two hearts one
 When heaven heard the stars,
 The first faint stars reply?
 Were not our twin hearts one,
 When heaven heard the stars,
 The first faint stars reply?
 Canst thou then doubt that while the ages roll
 Our being one shall be?
 As flame and light are one, so is my soul
 One, o my love, with thee,
 As flame and light are one, so is my soul with thee,
 One with thee, One with thee.
 The ebbing star floods of the Judgment day
 Shall leave my heart still thine
 And Paradise itself shall fade away
 Ere I thy love resign.
When Allah Spoke
