Mun Wa Salwa Descends Poem by Mohammad Younus

Mun wa Salwa descends...
...from heaven;
It is within myself...
...what I get from Heaven;
That does not grow on earth;
What descends from God...
...Mun wa Salwa in my heart...
...is knowledge and Wisdom.
It will ne'er descend on those...
...who do not take rounds...
...of the sacred house of Allah;
Where with the pilgrims of lord I chant:

Here I am O God, here I am!
Here I am!
You have no partners, here I am!
To You alone is all praise...
...and all excellence!
and to You is all sovereignty.
There is no partner to You!

The music that I hear resonates...
...in my heart;
I am myself the musician playing...
...to myself the music of Love!
The endless melody: the song of Alast:
Am I not your lord?
As I hear this music of eternity...
...I respond by saying:
Bala! Bala! Bala! (Yes You Are!)
