The Drop
The drop that has become an envoy from the Sea of Unity— the seven seas would be captive to that drop.
The master of to-morrow and of the present (is) before it; (yet) of a (whole) treasure it sees not (even) a groat.
(If) a mote bring a message from yonder Sun, the sun would become a slave to that mote.
The drop that has become an envoy from the Sea of Unity— the seven seas would be captive to that drop.
If a handful of earth become His courier, His heavens will lay their heads (in homage) before His earth.
When the earth of Adam became God's courier, God's angels laid their heads (in worship) before His earth.
