“I saw my Lord with the eye of the heart
I asked: ‘Who are You?’
He replied, ‘You’.”
- Mansur al-Hallaj
In darkness we must walk for
A while
Diminished by our own pride.
For what else would there be
Left to do
But to adore You
Who is always near.
We forgot for
We became ignorant,
But all that is left
Is You and You.
If I cannot love You
I do not love myself.
If I cannot believe in You
I do not believe in myself.
What would the world be
Without You?
An unpopulated stream
Of masses that are unconscious.
A Beautiful World
