Come Unto Me Poem by Mohammad Younus

Don't you know-what He said-
Peace be upon you
You are light from My light
You are the secret of My secret
You are not merely a lump of clay -
You are not a compound of four -
Water, clay, fire, and air

Don't you know I am calling you...
...to My home of peace;
Come out of My valleys of jalāl and jamāl;
Walk to Me and follow My call;
I will grace you with a ladder...
...to come up to My Àrash rung by rung;
I am the king over you, your lord!
And you are my chosen caliph!
I give you dominance over all the worlds;

Get out of the worlds and come to me;
How can a man of clay and water behold...
...the exalted lord with gross eyes;
But One who loves me, finds me!
One who finds me, loves me!
He looks at my beauteous face...
...with the unwavering inward eye;
He loves me like the legendary Majnun...
...who says: I love Leila and Leila is I
