A Poem and Visual Reflection
by Adli Yacubi

In the quiet spaces of reflection, where language becomes prayer, Unseen Table emerged. This poem is a devotional meditation — a rhythmic journey through names and attributes of the Divine. Inspired by the cadence of Qur’anic verse and the beauty of the seen and unseen, it is paired here with an Arabic calligraphy that captures its spirit visually.

Pronouncing pronouns and prepositions
Lift the lamp, the light, lit by the holy
Scour the sacred and the secret sources
Invoking various verses of our Lord

Lord of the mighty mountains high
Lord of the sweet-scented rose nearby
Lord of the earth and skies that lie
Lord of the day and the night gone by

Lord of the mighty oceans deep
Lord of the universe in its keep
Lord of the stars in endless sweep
Lord of the secrets that we keep

Lord of the merciful and just
Lord of the faithful and the trust
Lord of the righteous and the just
Lord of the true, in whom we must

Lord of the prophets and the wise
Lord of the knowledge that never dies
Lord of the heavens and the sunrise
Lord of the earth, to that we arise

Lord of the Throne, the Tremendous and Honourable
Lord of Forgiveness, Full of Mercy, ever able
Lord of the Bounty, the Infinite and Stable
Lord of the Sovereignty, Owner of the Unseen Table

🌙 A Final Thought

In a world thick with noise, may these verses be a quiet invocation — a return to the Sacred, to the unseen currents beneath all things. If the words moved something within you, pause… and let that be your prayer.
