Before Him

We, created being, regard our existence as independent,
Consider ourselves as not on Him dependent.
The formed exnihilo ‘yesh’ celebrating the fallacy,
Believes himself autonomous of the Divine Creating Galaxy.

This is how on earth, created finite, we apprehend,
Far from the Heavenly Source do we comprehend.
Before Him, everything, including our ‘yesh’, is non-existing –
As rays – while in the orb of the sun – are nonbeing.

Originated – like separate individuals – by the Divine force,
All existence is nullified in relation to their source.
