My beloved is He,
Who weaves Creation,
From Nothing but Himself;
The Timeless who allots time;
He is the One but His reflection,
Is in the mirror of every soul;
He is the Sun who shines in every wave,
The Fragrance that wafts from each flower,
The Intoxication that brews in hearts,
The Dream, which unfolds in eyes,
The Reality, which unfurls in existence,
The Air from which He shares breath,
The Life from which he allots life spans;
I care the least, what people have to say,
I am mad after Him, ‘coz I know,
He alone can allay my fears, my pains,
He is my redemption;
All others are but consolation,
He is the panacea for his lovers;
The remedy for ingenuous insanity.
