There

sufi-dancer-for-there-poem

Jerrahi Sufi Order (copyright 2008 Siting at the Gate)

–

There
I bow my head—
At the feet of every creature.

This constant submission and homage,
Of kissing God
All over,

Someday.
Every lover will,
Do.

Only
There I prostrate myself–
Against the beauty of each form–

For when I bring
My heart close to any object
I always hear the Friend
Say,

"Hafiz, I am
Here."

Translation by Daniel Ladinsky
