Tanya in poetry – Hashem is One!

Tanya in Poetry, Vol. 3 (Shaar HaYichud VehaEmunah, ch. 6)

The heavens and the earth are One and the same

It’s all our Creator, from His Divine Name

No metaphor about the body and soul

Can explain our Creator and His control.

 

He made this world from nothing, using His Word

Creating anew, though each moment unheard

With our humanly ears and humanly sight

In reality, nullified, within His Light.

 

This is the strength of Hashem, our Creator

He speaks a whole world that appears greater

Than Himself, His Unity, and His All-Power

Concealed and contracted, His Light devoured.

 

And so we can say, “What a beautiful world!

Look at how old, with many details impearled!”

Such is His hiddenness, but the fact remains

Everything is Hashem, under His domain.
