Enlightenment from Solitude

Don't surrender your loneliness so quickly. 

Let it cut more deeply. 

Let it ferment and season you,

As few human or divine ingredients can.

[Hafez]

Whirl like the Dervish, 

Whirling for His Lord

Right hand raised to the Heavens

Seeking God's Light

Left hand brought down to Earth

Distributing God's Love

Whirl like the Dervish

Who knows the Divine Essence

Who's tapped into the Spiritual Abode

Whirl like the Dervish,

Watch him perish

Watch him be resurrected

If only he can continue for eternity

That is his only desire, 

To please his Lord.

[Rouzbeh]
