I Love His Beauty Poem by Mohammad Younus

I made reason and logic my friend,
But my heart rejected the advice that he gave,
My Nafs is a bottomless sea -
It doesn't get filled when I stuff it with,
The earthly desires, and mundane thoughts,
All the while it asks me:
...Have you got something more?
I am obliged to hear the salām,
From my lord incessantly!
My heart receives it with pleasure,
And says waaleykum- salām my lord!
I am glad I got the pen from my lord,
Who commanded me: Write!
It is my lord who taught me -
To write with his pen,
That what I did not know before,
And whatever I write with his pen,
That affirms the sole existence of my lord,
Don't call me crazy when I say,
I am his pen!
I don't wander like a vagabond,
I servemy lord-
I keep my ears open to hear his call:
...His eternal mellow music!
I keep my eyes ever fixed...
....in the direction of his light,
I do not not go with a begging bowl,
Before unworthy ones, leaving my lord,
My lord is the sole seller...
...of the goods that I want,
These are no ordinary goods,
These aren't available at any other shop,
Mykoul always hears in his soul...
...the sound of hu hu,
That keeps my mind and heart always,
In the remembrance of my lord,
I am in love with his beauty,
There is nothing like that one,
It effulges a light...
...that radiates my soul and heart,
My sole love is his extensive beauty

Mykoul
