In My Vast Universe

In my vast universe...like this destiny,
one will find so much diversity in facts alone, 
and I admire the marvelous planets
that constantly spin around our life-giving sun,
which is so splendidly refulgent 
under these unpredictable skies;   
and in spite of our limited sight,
we should be able to clearly see the majesty,
so grandly laid before and beyond us:
to discern, on belief and evidence, how 
the Creator's mind is more magnificent 
and brilliant that the sun itself!


How can there be cheerless days,
when a faithful and respectful woman paints
our dreary sky with vivid colors?
And the sensations of two bodies from that unity,
so inseparable, are not those sinful ways
that we are accustomed to hear from those being betrayed...
but  a very few seem dismayed,
until the same sad thing happens to them unexpectedly!


Faithless hearts question God's existence,
and the absence of miracles;
can foolish people, who doubt the might of His spirit...
an invisible spirit that promptly creates,
be endowed with the wisdom they don't seek?
And He, in my vast universe,
is ever visible and speaks to me in words others don't understand...
to unlock the secret which is kept from the dubious and wicked,
who are being burdened by anxieties
that allow restlessness to settle in!  


If they, too, exercised an indisputable faith,
they would rejoice like me and sing many praises: 
instead of losing strength and courage and feel low;
and that faith floating, on the current of fresh waters, 
leads me to the blueness of the oceans and seas...
that is always present in my vast universe!
