Door to the Guide of mankind, Ahmad

Door to the Guide of mankind, Ahmad,
Mercy of the Clear Truth In truth a Reviver of the Deen
Sheikh of all Gnostics / Helper of the universe.
Servant of the Purified Sacred Law,
My Master al-Sheikh al-Akbar
Exalted is He Who gave him a manifestation
Comprising all universe.
His door is Abd al-Ghani,
The wali, son of a wali [1],
Ocean of prophetic knowledge,
Sheikh of the Masters of firm conviction.
O you oceans of generosity, be generous
With your gift, then give again and again!
Until when will this (state of) constriction persist?
Show mercy to a dejected heart!
[1] Refers to Sheikh Abd al-Ghani al-Nablusi and his father (rahimahuma Allah taala).
Sheikh Abd al-Ghani is buried close to al-Sheikh al-Akbar (rahimahu Allah taala), and
as also an interpreter of his works.
