4. Matters of life and death
Within my heart the Truth of life shines white. The secret heights of God my soul now climbs; No dole, no sombre pang, no death in my sight.
No mortal days and nights can shake my calm; A Light above sustains my secret soul. All doubts with grief are banished from my deeps, My eyes of light perceive my cherished Goal.
Though in the world, I am above its woe; I dwell in an ocean of supreme release. My mind, a core of the One's unmeasured thoughts; The star vast welkin hugs my Spirit's peace.
My eternal days are found in speeding time; I play upon His Flute of rhapsody. Impossible deeds no more impossible seem; In birth chains now shines Immortality.
Sufi poet ( sufism is a mystical branch of Islam)
