| Do I press thee to my heart | W |
| In the night of distance far | Q2 |
| - | |
| What deep gulf what bitter smart | W |
| Yes 'tis thou indeed at last | W |
| - | |
| Of my joys the partner dear | R2 |
| Mindful though of sorrows past | W |
| - | |
| I the present needs must fear | R2 |
| - | |
| When the still unfashion'd earth | F |
| - | |
| Lay on God's eternal breast | W |
| He ordain'd its hour of birth | F |
| - | |
| With creative joy possess'd | W |
| Then a heavy sigh arose | S2 |
| - | |
| When He spake the sentence Be | F |
| And the All with mighty throes | S2 |
| - | |
| Burst into reality | F |
| - | |
| And when thus was born the light | W |
| - | |
| Darkness near it fear'd to stay | W |
| And the elements with might | W |
| - | |
| Fled on every side away | W |
| Each on some far distant trace | X |
| - | |
| Each with visions wild employ | C |
| Numb in boundless realm of space | X |
| - | |
| Harmony and feeling void | W |
| - | |
| Dumb was all all still and dead | W |
| - | |
| For the first time God alone | K |
| Then He form'd the morning red | W |
| - | |
| Which soon made its kindness known | K |
| It unravelled from the waste | W |
| - | |
| Bright and glowing harmony | F |
| And once more with love was grac'd | W |
| - | |
| What contended formerly | F |
| - | |
| And with earnest noble strife | L2 |
| - | |
| Each its own Peculiar sought | W |
| Back to full unbounded life | L2 |
| - | |
| Sight and feeling soon were brought | W |
| Wherefore if 'tis done explore | T2 |
| - | |
| How why give the manner name | G |
| Allah need create no more | T2 |
| - | |
| We his world ourselves can frame | G |
| - | |
| So with morning pinions bright | W |
| - | |
| To thy mouth was I impell'd | W |
| Stamped with thousand seals by night | W |
| - | |
| Star clear is the bond fast held | W |
| Paragons on earth are we | F |
| - | |
| Both of grief and joy sublime | U2 |
| And a second sentence Be | F |
| - | |
| Parts us not a second time | U2 |
| - | |
| - | |
| - | |
| SULEIKA | C |
| - | |
| WITH what inward joy sweet lay | W |
| - | |
| I thy meaning have descried | W |
| Lovingly thou seem'st to say | W |
| - | |
| That I'm ever by his side | W |
| - | |
| That he ever thinks of me | F |
| - | |
| That he to the absent gives | V2 |
| All his love's sweet ecstasy | F |
| - | |
| While for him alone she lives | V2 |
| - | |
| Yes the mirror which reveals | W2 |
| - | |
| Thee my loved one is my breast | W |
| This the bosom where thy seals | W2 |
| - | |
| Endless kisses have impress'd | W |
| - | |
| Numbers sweet unsullied truth | F |
| - | |
| Chain me down in sympathy | F |
| Love's embodied radiant youth | F |
| - | |
| In the garb of poesy | W2 |
| - | |
| - | |
| - | |
| IN thousand forms mayst thou attempt surprise | W2 |
| - | |
| Yet all beloved one straight know I thee | F |
| Thou mayst with magic veils thy face disguise | W2 |
| - | |
| And yet all present one straight know I thee | F |
| - | |
| Upon the cypress' purest youthful bud | W |
| - | |
| All beauteous growing one straight know I thee | F |
| In the canal's unsullied living flood | W |
| - | |
| All captivating one well know I thee | F |
| - | |
| When spreads the water column rising proud | W |
| - | |
| All sportive one how gladly know I thee | F |
| When e'en in forming is transform'd the cloud | W |
| - | |
| All figure changing one there know I thee | F |
| - | |
| Veil in the meadow carpet's flowery charms | W2 |
| - | |
| All checkered starry fair one know I thee | F |
| And if a plant extend its thousand arms | W2 |
| - | |
| O all embracing one there know I thee | F |
| - | |
| When on the mount is kindled morn's sweet light | W |
| - | |
| Straightway all gladdening one salute I thee | F |
| The arch of heaven o'er head grows pure and bright | W |
| - | |
| All heart expanding one then breathe I thee | F |
| - | |
| That which my inward outward sense proclaims | W2 |
| - | |
| Thou all instructing one I know through thee | F |
| And if I utter Allah's hundred names | W2 |
| - | |
| A name with each one echoes meant for thee | F |
| - | |
