I Am Not Born Of Darkness, I Am Born Of Light. Poem by Mohammad Younus

I am not born of darkness, I am born of light.
I am not lost in wilderness;
my eternal home is in sight.
I sing and dance, discovering Truth within me,
echoing vibrantly in vast ways,
reminding me of the memory of Eternity.

Every miserable moment replaced
with ecstasy and divine thoughts,
with a sense of anticipation
to find immutable presence.

In my heart flows holy water of al-Kawthar,
the fathomless ocean.
My True self resides there,
where I discover the undiscovered spring of life.

Once realized, I understand
myself to be from the limitless,
where Eternity is the Truth within me.

For one who knows the oneness,
there are no limits;
never should one feel ashamed
in a small frame.
