Everything, Everyone Seems to Exist (5/22/16)
The world is charmed by His attributes.

And only the one who can lift the curtain of mortality
May reach His Essence behind His attributes.

Once you get out, you will be a Sultan.

The Flames of Your Heart (12/20/15)

O one born in Union, you are dying in separation,
O one who sleeps thirsty at the river bank,
You are dying and begging at the side of a treasure.
