Heavenly Scheme Amidst a barren mountain valley of Hijaaz a city Bedouin sat beneath her coarse woolen tent A bon fire was lit sending sparks of anguish to its Moon confidante Stars huddled together concocting a heavenly scheme All cosmos were made privy bearing witness to the birth of a new order The Bedouin’s tears of dismay speedily cascaded down Fire extinguished! As she sat silently in solitude in the darkness of the night awaiting a sign… The sound of hooves were suddenly heard A silver knight rapidly rode upon his Arabian steed Like a majestic falcon he swooped her up placing her as A- Class passenger “Worry not Bedouin, I’ve been sent from my master I shall remain with you in this very land I’m your knight, your aide and true companion Shall we travel onwards? Speechless, full of awe in the spirit of love they rode on in silence Driven to extreme thirst she pleaded for water He presented wine in a goblet studded with the finest jewels; Arabian Jewels
As they rode through the land a magnetic force of love drew riders from all directions Many shall mock, skeptics shall frown, literalists will despise some shall remain for selfish gain then depart A handful too shall betray! Only the seekers of Light shall accompany you; The Loyalists. Through you, signs they shall receive Our secret sign upon their right… Your duty shall be to bring them to the shores WE shall cast these jewels into the Eternal Ocean of Love! Soaring through the Land of Love he brought her to Rub Al Khali, the Empty Quarter. The stallion halted upon his order The Royal Knight descended I shall return my stallion for you this sword a sign When the ride is rough call upon my name Bidding her farewell he whispered, I am with you Bedu, go on now (Dec 02/09 Dhul Hijjah) |
