I have come to those who think upon me
I was found among those who seek after me
you hearers, hear me
You who wait for me, embrace me.
And do not chase me from your sight.
Do not be ignorant of me in any place or time;
watch, and wait.
Do not be ignorant of me.
For I am the first and the last
I am the honored one and I am the scorned.
I am the whore and the holy one.
I am the wife and the virgin.
I am she whose wedding is great,
and I have not taken a man.
I am the mother of my father
and the sister of my husband,
and he is my son.
I am the incomprehensible silence
and the idea often remembered.
I am the voice of many sounds.
and the word that appears in many forms.
I am the sounding of my name
For I am knowledge and ignorance.
I am shame and boldness
I am shameless, I am ashamed.
I am strength and I am fear.
I am war and peace.
[and war has come because of me.
And I am an alien and a citizen.]
Hear me.
I am she who has been hated everywhere
and she who has been loved everywhere.
I am she whom they call Life,
and you have called Death.
I am she whom they call Law,
and you have called Lawlessness.
Do not be ignorant of me.
