I am walking deeper into my heart
to make you a witness of my art
Please be seated
This place is sacred
Welcome to my Divaan
Where
earth and sky
Intermarry
Where
fire and water
coexist
This is a tavern
Called Divaan E Ishq
Where lovers enter
To birth from within
I wouldn’t dare to grant you privy
Into my inner sanctuary
Where all here is soul intimacy
Where we wine and dine
While oud and lute
Set the stage
For tonite’s secret pursuit
Laila’s glance is
Is what you seek
Now dance with her as she speaks
Let the guests gaze and mingle
In what we call Hallaj’s Ensemble
