I Stand My Stand Poem by Sumita Jetley

Oh, mystical seeker, beggar of love and devotion,
Enraptured in your quest, besotted by divine emotion.
Lying in wait, patient and still, seeking your grace,
In the sacred sanctuary of prayer, finding solace and space.

With closed eyes and open heart, I turn to you,
In the depths of stillness, my soul longs to pursue.
In the chamber of silence, where divine presence dwells,
I offer my prayers, as sacred stories that the heart tells.

With hands raised in supplication, I seek your embrace,
Yearning to bask in the light of your radiant grace.
Immersed in the ecstasy of zikr, I utter your name,
A melody of devotion, aflame with love's eternal flame.

In the depths of surrender, I find profound release,
Lost in the rhythm of remembrance, my soul finds peace.
You, the ultimate guide, the guardian of hearts,
Administering the cosmos with divine wisdom, in every part.

Grant me the wisdom to embrace love's pure fire,
To transcend earthly bounds and soar even higher.
In prostration and surrender, my spirit takes flight,
In communion with the Divine, bathed in heavenly light.

Oh, celestial presence, beyond the realm of sight,
In the whirl of ecstasy, my soul dances with delight.
You, the unseen guide, with admin and processes true,
I, the humble seeker, yearning for union with you.

May my prayers be a testament of love and devotion,
A sacred bond with the Divine, in eternal motion.
Through the Sufi path, my soul finds its way,
To merge with the Beloved, in timeless sway.

In the chamber of stillness, where silence prevails,
I offer my soul's yearnings, in mystical tales.
Oh, Sufi seeker, may I find solace and tranquility,
As I journey on this path, with unwavering humility.

In the sacred rituals of prayer and zikr, I find my repose,
Unified with the Divine, where eternal love flows.
Oh, mystical presence, guide me on this divine quest,
Until my soul is merged with the One, eternally blessed.
