Ghazal—the Soundless Heart Poem by Mystic Qalandar

The soundless heart still whispers: pause, remain in the light,
Within that pause, the world dissolves its chain in the light.

A solitude hums in the crowd's embrace,
A secret home the restless cannot gain in the light.

From pulse to pulse, the echo rings: I am Truth—
The only sound that burns without a stain in the light.

Not in the market of desire, nor in the self,
The caravan is lost in dust and pain in the light.

God dwells beyond the sight of reason's reach—
To know you cannot know becomes the gain in the light.

So dive: the deepest gems are never seen,
They wait in silence, hidden in their vein in the light.

The force that blooms a bud in folded night
Is writing on each leaf its secret name in the light.

This is the secret: no figure afar,
But pouring sky, becoming once again in the light.

O MyKoul, let your soul dissolve its flight,
For all that was and is shall still remain in the light.
