Let Us Dance To The Divine's Tune, Persistently Poem by Mohammad Younus

Let us dance to the divine's tune, persistently,
Why waste life trying to follow the juggler's song?
Let thoughts and feelings rise from our sacred well,
Where the divine light eternally dwells.

Let us not worry what others think or feel—
Instead, live by what springs naturally from within.
Let us not recite what poets, sages, and philosophers told;
Like true mystics, let us seek wisdom from the Source,
Deciding for ourselves the mystic way,
Connecting deeply with the well of divine wisdom.

There is no need to seek support or guidance
From external voices that tether our minds.
Let us break free from the chains of borrowed thoughts,
And exercise our will to discern good from evil.

Let us cease dancing to another's tune—
Explore the paths that course through our hearts.
Do not fear the critic or the sting of abuse;
Stand tall, live as you were born to be.
For when you dance to another's song,
You betray the essence of your divine fitrah.
