Burn in the Flames of Love
Oh Fire Worshippers
Do you wish to burn in the flames of love?
Find the lovers in order to burn!
Their company shall alight the wick within
You too shall be set aflame
As Saadi said,
‘Learn love from the moth…’
In the realm of love
The souls are the object of concern
Gender is abolished
Reality is manifest
We only see, hear and feel love
Burn with its intensity
All else is dim
Anxious to become sober?
No shall be the reply.
Only pretend you are so.
Khaleel Allah too was set ablaze
Kaleem Allah witnessed
Habib Allah invited
He was and is One with the Flames of Love
The millenary fire of Persia burnt in Madness
Extinguished itself upon the arrival of its beloved
Oh Fire Worshippers!
Do you wish to burn in the flames of love?
Burn and become ashes!
Let heart remain lost in love
Bewildered
Erratic
Impassioned
Enchanted…
And when your senses are restored
All will seem a bizarre dream
Now relish its sweetness.
