Sweet God, Where Should I Find You? Poem by Mohammad Younus

Sweet God, where should I find you?
I humbly ask you,
Let me know where do you dwell,
I sought you under a chinar tree,
And ask'd, if you were there,
A rustling wind did seem to tell me,
No: He is not here,
Go and seek him elsewhere,
I did;
I climbed a mount high:
Surely, thought I,
Here is the God's abode,
I will search out here...
...the creator of all beauty...
...that I see around,
But while I looked down and around,
I cried out: O my Creator!
Bless me with Your Divine Vision,
I wish to see you,
Immediately did l hear the secret voice,
You can not see me here,
Then fell down unconscious,
I did not see even a small ray,
At length, I met a faqir good old man,
Whom when for guidance I did demand,
He guided me to a secret cave inside me,
But there I found none but me
Indeed God is beyond the reach of human
...perception and understanding,
Verily He is powerful, almighty! ! !
