Music Is The Mystery that Veils The Visible Poem by Mohammad Younus

Music is the mystery that veils the visible...
... and unveils the hidden;
Imbues the black dry clay with sound...
.. and builds with it an echoing mosque;
Spreads a Shahtoosh Shawl...
...on the shoulders of viceroy...
...and puts in his hands the dominion of God...
...for fulfilling the will of God;
Thus, this godman comes out...
...of the vicious circle of life and death...
... and alternating pain and joy;
Music binds to the rope of God, and...
...drags the hearer back...
...to the lost garden of Eden;
Music is testimony of Gd's love and mercy...
Music reminds us the covenant made with God...
... that we entered into on the day of Alast;
Music immerses the hearer in the ocean of love;
Man's real secret of life is the eternal music!
...that was sounded in him by God...
...when He blew into him of his spirit;
Man is made of clay, but of course of sounding clay;
The eternal sound! A great secret hidden in man!
Music is a covenant between the lover and the beloved...
...music is a secret wedlock between being and non-being...
Listening to the eternal music is my response...
...to the question of lord:
Alastu bi rabbikum? Am I not your Lord?
