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
