Words of the Secrets

 

Shhh

The world is visible,

but its essence is secret.

The essence is its message.

The world is in the words.

 

A word comes from the heart

and has hundreds of faces.

Each face has a thousand strings.

Sounds come from them like music from a harp.

 

No words remains on the tongue,

but the heart is still filled by words.

The world vanishes,

but God remains.

 

The words of the secrets

that were revealed are now gone,

but their meaning lives on

in the heart.
