Your earthy lover can be charming and coquettish but never very faithful.
The true lover is the one who on your final day opens a thousand door

Why does pain exist
So that the servant may persist
In evoking his Lord for bliss
An everlasting kiss
What does the drunkard have to say
His mind is held in sway
From his beloveds gaze he can not turn away

Alas the heart is in a state of ruin
The drunk has smashed the cup [...]

We do not think of good or evil –
our intent is His pleasure and [...]

Because it burnt, lost its life, and found no voice.
These pretenders are ignorantly in search of Him,
Because he who obtained knowledge has not
returned.
O thou who art above all imaginations, conjectures,
opinions and ideas,
Above anything people have said or we have heard or
read,
The assembly is finished and life [...]
Agree or Disagree: Let’s Try to Understand
