My Heart Says, I'd Like To Sit in The Circles Of Dervishes Poem by Mohammad Younus

My heart says, I'd like to sit in the circles of dervishes,
People with brilliant lights and palpable secrets,
To walk and talk with them in the mountains and meadows,
To wash off my sins and evil thoughts,
I'd like to take a gusul with their shimmering light,
I see that dervishes are mines of diamonds,
I would like to receive from them bounties of...
...knowledge and wisdom,
They aren't engaged in worldly pursuits,
Their hearts are preoccupied with love and zikre,
I'd like to sit to receive the lessons as a devout student...
...before these divine teachers,
Dervishes are certainly The trees of knowledge!
With my head greedy to receive their lessons,
About the world full of deception,
About Humankind full of empty dreams,
About the world full of chaos and conflicts,
Where every person faces hundreds of problems,
But dervishes are in love with God and his creation,
I would like to spend all my life in their company,
I know I'll achieve the purpose of my creation,
Under their August tutelage and fellowship,
So I'd like to be a companion to living dervishes.
Not the dead dervishes who are resting in...
...mudgraves or mausoleums,
Who have physically departed from the world,
Where I live, and where I need guidance,
Only a living dervish can offer me the mantle of faqre -
.... (the secret hidden) !
