My peace, O my brothers and sisters, is my solitude, br And my Beloved is with me always, br For His love I can find no substitute, br And His love is the test for me among mortal beings, br Whenever His Beauty I may contemplate, br He is my "mihrab", towards Him is my "qiblah" br If I die of love, before completing satisfaction, br Alas, for my anxiety in the world, alas for my distress, br O Healer (of souls) the heart feeds upon its desire, br The striving after union with Thee has healed my soul, br O my Joy and my Life abidingly, br You were the source of my life and from Thee also came my ecstasy.
