I said to the fish:
"You should praise water."
They said: "What is that?"
"Water fills your cells
Water flows in your veins
Water surrounds you.
Water is your flesh
Water is your breath
Water is your life.
You should praise water,"
I said to the fish.
They asked: "What's water?"
I left the fish in their pond.
I went to see my shaykh.
My shaykh said: "You should praise God."
