It Is Not My Madness Poem by Mohammad Younus

I am neither an insider nor an outsider to you!
In my delusion, I thought myself to be independent of you,
I realise that this delusion is not real, it is self-created by me;
Night and day I meditated, and found I am not your other,
I felt relieved when I came to understand the secret hidden...
...that you have created Adam in your own image!
It is not my madness!
It is what you have revealed through your honest messengers!
Who will tell me what is the meaning of being in your image?
If not in public court, let you tell me secretly when I am alone,
I am not naive to accept that a stranger can ever love with you
Whatever I am, I know, I am due to your command 'Be',
If I do not know my essential being, it is due to my ignorance,
There is abundant evidence available to a seer about your being,
You are the Only One manifested in all the created things of the universe.
