The Prayer Upon My Lips
It is the Beloved who is revealed
in every face,
sought in every sign,
gazed upon by every eye,
worshipped in every object
that is adored,
pursued in the visibe
and in the unseen.
Every single one of His creatures
will someday find the divine
the primordial and glorious,
the forever and the Infinite.
To be united with that
is the prayer upon my lips.
I love how Hafiz always speaks of being united with the Ultimate Truth, how he seeks to understand that we are all one, that we are all interconnected, that we are all divinely and perfectly made! And it's so cool to think about what happens if you go beyond your own little world, if you're willing to pursue the invisible. The song "My Own Little World" by Matthew West challenges us to think about the question, "What if there's a bigger picture?"
