You Have Not To Go To Any Far Off Realm Poem by Mohammad Younus

You have not to go to any far off realm,
That people think impenetrable to be,
That realm is in fact within your heart,
That is the kingdom of heaven known to be,
There gushes out the fountain of love,
There the eternal harp plays all the time,
There the eternal lamp perpetually burns,
With love moths going round the light,
There lies the holy men's cathedral,
Where sages meditate and contemplate,
To obtain spiritual consciousness, and knowledge,
There they are bestowed with two priceless diamonds -
Self awareness and enlightenment,
There one may bind on the anklets -
Giving out the mystical jad sounds,
And dance the dance of inner consciousness,
Let us pray to enter that Kingdom of heaven,
With indifference to all else.
