I Know This Poem by Mohammad Younus

I Know This

Even if I don't see Him...
...though ever I feel Him...
...I know He is!
I know that He calls me...
...to Him, lovingly saying:
Udnu minē! Udnu minē!
Come nigh! Come nigh!

I know He is myself!
I know He is in my outer self!
I want to turn to my Qibla...
...not towards East or West!
I am turning to my direction;
He is my essence!
Not apart from myself!

As one follows a flock of sheep...
...I would turn to where others turned;
I was blinded like that, and didn't know...
...He is in every direction;
As if I had absolutely forgotten:
Fa aynama tuwallu fasamma wajhullah!
(So wherever you turn...
...there is the Face of Allah - Qur'an) .
