This study is a translation from Persian to English of a previously untranslated work by a renowned usd20\sp{\rm th}usd century Sufi Master, who is representative of a 1,400 year Sufi heritage, titled Chanteh--The Gnostic's Cosmos. The translation includes the Author's Introduction in prose, an Author's Introduction in poetry, a poetic prelude, and the main text consisting of 402 lines of poetry (1,203 half lines). The translation of this mystical work includes extensive annotations providing explanations for various philosophical, literary, scientific, and Islamic references. A contextual essay preceding the translation, places Chanteh within the historical development of Sufism and provides a brief account of usd20\sp{\rm th}usd century Sufism. In addition, the contextual essay includes a biographical sketch of the author, a discussion of the literary significance of Chanteh, its poetical style, and the translation process.
