‘Die before you die,’ said the Prophet
Muhammad.
Have wings that feared ever
touched the Sun?
I was born when all I once
feared – I could
love.

Eyes are at rest, the stars are setting.
Of monsters in the ocean.You are the Just who knows no change,The Balance that can never swerve,The Eternal which never passes away.The doors of Kings are bolted now and guarded by soldiers.Your Door is open to all who call upon You.My Lord,Each love is now alone with his beloved.And I am alone with You.
