Know Thyself Poem by Mohammad Younus

Know Thyself

The mystic lute tunes and tunes
Till the mystic light shines you
When you behold this divine light
The mystic lute shall stops to tune
You will behold you are a light being
You are but a reflection of the divine light
Can the reflection be separate from its object?
Just as the roaring rivers silent fall
Back into the sea when they fall
You too will fall in the silent sea
You are but a wave of the sea
Can a wave be sit off from the sea?
Calm and composed you will be
When you return to your eternal home
Son of man! you must know
He who knows his self, knows his lord.
