Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya-Parts1-2

Part One
Even though their eyes have not seen the face of
the Truth,
They write volumes upon volumes arguing about it.
How unfortunate they are, taking pride in their eyes,
And turning their backs on the sun.
If eyes did not need the sun,
The bat would surely be the most sharp-eyed creature.
He who is blind and there are pitfalls in his way,
Woe on him if he does not take a guide.
There are another people who, due to their ignorance,
Are similarly beset by untenable beliefs.
[They believe that] in the whole world
God has not created a land better than theirs;
Moreover, they believe that no face pleases Him,
Other than their beautiful face.
