GAZAL
(shamas faqir)
i see everywhere my friend
not a hair breath without,
come i will tell you the secret of secrets
do not be un attentive
***
in a moment it came to me
i heard it under the wings of my heart
care and attention are preferred
for up, the down is also pride
***
you dive in to the unity
you will find the king
if alive you be , alive you die
go on playing as a child
***
the sea is deeper than the deep
how would blind fathom the vast
not easy to comprehend the meaning
only wise may do
***
tear away the garments of not being
you will know your name
the goblet with wine empty
***
in the supplication i saw ,
existence and vision disappear
this secret alone remained
and it is not wrapped in drapes
***
how do i tell you its worth
even dead the lover lived
you shamas make this happen
in case you you seek
***
(translation: ayaz rasool nazki)
