SHEIK NAZIM HAQQANI'S LOVE
I poured zamzam into the ocean.
There's no point in going back now.
I am a thirsty wanderer and everything behind me are sandunes.
In pursuit of love I turned away from all other desires, so that my
sole leaving is that of your depthful love-ocean.
Ya Sayyidi...
Now the tide of your love is pulling me in...
I came to your shore,
no doubt, through your love. Removing my shoes upon my arrival, I
glanced closely and saw your reflection.
Familiarly it looked as though it were mine. My heart surged. That I
could find myself within you, but through no wordly distraction.
The face of Muhammed forms a perfect rose. The rose falls upon a
pure, white sheet, its petals form a meem. Two lovers glow beneath the
sheet, entangled in a dance. Shyly one speaks, "Your eyes, sweet
nostalgia, I've found myself!" She cries tears of longing.
When you find your lost child you cradle him in your arms. One like
you are, Allah would never restrict you in time and space. The universe
is love, you are the universe. The love of the master is more than the
student, his tongue drips with the sweet honey of paradise.
I've been dreaming in this world, departure came with the voicing of
the name "Nazim" awakening both subconscious and innermostheart. When
Jesus whispers "I love you," you'll find the cup of wine is poisoned,
there you'll look into Sheik Nazim's eyes. You will find him.
You gaze towards Muhammad (S) smiling and laughing, and hopeful,
and grab the rope of your Sheik. Your circling the house of God. Bringing
two things Sunnah and Quran, both dissapear into love. When tears
become zamzam, enough for all of the pilgrims the black stone becomes white.
Like the snow that cleansed the breast of the Prophet (S). When Gabriel
came with revelation, only the infidels rejected, therefore O you who
believe! Obey Allah and obey the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and those of
you (Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything
amongst yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger. Quran 4:59
