O Soul, It Is Time To Start Poem by Mohammad Younus

O soul, it is time to start for the morning prayer:
The call of the caller reaches my spiritual ear,
Behold, the sun is readying to rise and brighten
the world,
And beggs us to come out of the quilt,
Hear, awakening is better than sleeping!
Why, O lover, are you in deep slumber?
This calling sound, before and behind,
Is inviting you to set off beyond the void,
So that the mysteries hidden may be revealed,
What you consider as awakeningnis really
a delusion,
Alas! this life is so ephemeral, Beware
of this deluding world,
And come out of the heavy slumber,
O soul, seek the Beloved, seek your essence,
O lover, be wakeful:
It behoves not a lover to be in slumber.
