When the sleepers begin to rise
When the veils begin to cast aside
When I becomes You and We becomes I
When the heart begins to reveal His roots most high
When the self is being tamed and is put on a leash
When the journey of the lower self begins towards the pure
When worship turns into Love and Love melts into Union
When thoughts turn into action and action into devotion
When the questions begin taking shapes of a time of content
When the tongue keeps praising beauty in creation and the Creator
When the eyes begin to witness what they could never see
When the ignorance becomes imprisoned in knowing’s palace
When nothing else seems to exist but mere emptiness,
Then, we shall taste what Love for the Beloved really means.
