Awakening the Soul

بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم


Continued from the Valley of Pain.

The valley of love.

The enchanting wind calmly passes its wonders;
In a motion of delight the breeze gently elevates the heart into ecstasy
The melody of the nightingale sings each note with a perfect whisper;
A radiance of light beaming from its glistening eyes;
So much passion and love expressed as each note sings out its meaning,
Oh the serene, quiet, undisturbed valley of love;
Once tasted how can the heart but not surrender to this ecstatic addiction
Founded on love…
Drunk on love…
Lives on in love…
The wonders of the valley no eye can comprehend
For the Love that God bestowed vaguely is tasted;
‘Til the day when the soul is united with its Beloved.
