An-Noor
An-Noor! “The Light” that lightens all who live!
By this great name to Allah glory give.
By this great name to Allah glory give.
Of earth and heaven God is the Light.
As when a lamp upon a height
Is set within a niche, and gleams
From forth the glittering glass, and seems
A star,—wide fall the rays of it:—
So shines His glory, and 'tis lit
With holy oil was never pressed
From olive tree in east or west.
It burneth without touch of flame,
A light beyond all light: the same
Guideth the feet of men, and still
He leadeth by it whom He will.
As when a lamp upon a height
Is set within a niche, and gleams
From forth the glittering glass, and seems
A star,—wide fall the rays of it:—
So shines His glory, and 'tis lit
With holy oil was never pressed
From olive tree in east or west.

A light beyond all light: the same
Guideth the feet of men, and still
He leadeth by it whom He will.
Light of the world! An-Noor! illume
Our darkling pathway to the tomb.
Our darkling pathway to the tomb.
