Glory be to Allah!
What an excellent workman He is !
With just a handful of dust,
He has created so many diverse faces and figures.
Although of two colours , one white and one black,
and though He has given to each a nose ,ears, hands and feet,
even then all of them have distinch features and colours.
One is so sharply disguished from the other in countenance
and persons that you may easily tell one from the other in the multitude.
The sky is a bubble in the Sea of His Unity.
And the earth, too, a fragile ball of air; but how so wonderful ,
the sea beats itself against it yet can cause it no harm.
In praise of One who has such power and authority over all,
man verily becomes dumb. What words can he find?
Silence is better when all eloquence should fail....
(Poet of Shahnama)
Firdaussi,Abu'lQasim (d.AD1020)
