When I heard My Beloved values generosity
I turned away from the worldly greed
Giving away things I am in need
Losing my selfish self
Questioning my every purpose
Till I captured my worst self-enemy
When I heard My Beloved favors the poor
Among them he chosen all his prophets
From the poor I made my allies
Till poverty became my companionship
And wealth became my life toughest tests
When I heard My Beloved delayed my gift
To bring me heedless to him
On my knees, I stayed awaken all night
My mind moved, roaring like thunder
Across the mountains and valleys
In God Glory I wonder
didn't want to go to sleep
Worried what if he satisfied my need
Would my eyes for him stop to weep?
Would my heart get harden killing this soften seed?
When every time he broken my heart
He overwhelmed me with his Mercy and grace
Bringing me closer with the light of his face
Oh God!!!
How can life ever be imagined without you being on my side?
The treasure of your strong existence in this emptiness
The harmony of your presence in this loneliness
The fulfillment and peace in your constant remembrances
