Rumi - the wandering philosopher,
Renounced the world,
In search of his Beloved.
Perhaps! Perhaps!
The Almighty Lord has a different
Thought for me
Because amidst my cluttered life -
I return to Him, alone,
In all my deeds and desires.

In my gathered silence.
In my tumultous state.
In depths of confusion.
In the sight of resplendent hope.
In mirth, rage, remorse, or calm.
Amidst my cluttered life -
I return to Him, alone,
In all my deeds and desires.
Indeed! I return to Him, alone!
