A frenzied dervish, mad with love for God,Sought out bare hills where none had ever trod.Wild leopards kept this madman company --His heart was plunged in restless ecstasy;He lived within this state for twenty days,Dancing and singing in exultant praise:"There's no division; we two are alone --The world is happiness and grief has flown."Die to yourself -- no longer stay apart,But give to Him who asks for it your heart;The man whose happiness derives from HimEscapes existence, and the world grows dim;Rejoice for ever in the Friend, rejoiceTill you are nothing, but a praising voice.
