Fly With The Mystical Birds That Mysteriously Sing... Poem by Mohammad Younus

Fly with the mystical birds that mysteriously sing...
...even when soaring and gliding in the sky;
Pierce with them the sullen and sulky atmosphere...
...escaping the magnetic fields of the earth...
...such that you get near to your creator and the ruler;
Beyond the perceived world go and silently hear...
...the mellow music of the mystical birds;
Hear the flutes of the olden time...
...and have a vision of the day...
...when God filled you with His spirit;
When you gave allegiance to Him...
...that even as His Caliph you will not deem...
...yourself independent of Him;
Keep your covenant to your Lord!
You cannot however keep your word unless...
...you purely love Him and His chosen Messenger;
Let me remind you of your essence!
In Allah you have got your origin!
If you desire to be a sincere lover of God...
...you must follow in the footsteps of...
...the true friends of God, who love God and are...
....loved by God;
'Escape you from yourself;
Escape you from the world;
Travel to the green meadow of God...
...where you will not hear the melancholic songs;
Remember your essence when you watch...
...His signs in yourself and the cosmos;
O Lover! Feel His presence in your essence!
Surely, thus, will you listen to His voice in your heart!
Go on traveling to the essential truth until you reach...
... the place from where you had initially started your travel.'
