আমি ও আমি

ershadmz December 27th, 2009

আমি ভালবাসি আমাকে

আমাকে যে ভালবাসে

সেও এই আমার আমি।

আমাকে যখন দেখো তখন

আমাকে দেখ

যাকে ভালবাসি তাকেও দেখ।

Diwan al Hallaj

ershadmz September 14th, 2009

I do not cease swimming in the seas of love,
rising with the wave, then descending;
now the wave sustains me, and then I sink beneath it;
love bears me away where there is no longer any shore.

- (Diwan al-Hallaj, M. 34)

 

To Reach God

ershadmz September 14th, 2009

” For your sake, I hurry over land and water:

For your sake, I cross the desert and split the mountain in two,

And turn my face from all things,

Until the time I reach the place

Where I am alone with You.”

 

Kill Me

ershadmz September 14th, 2009

Kill me, my faithful friends,

For in my being killed is my life.

 

Love is that you remain standing

In front of your Beloved

When you are stripped of all your attributes;

Then His attributes become your qualities.

 

Between me and You, there is only me.

Take away the me, so only You remain

 

Truth And Me

ershadmz September 14th, 2009

Before Al Hallaj was put to death he said:

 

Now stands no more between Truth and me
Or reasoned demonstration,
Or proof of revelation;
Now, brightly blazing full, Truth’s lumination
Each flickering, lesser light.

 

I Am The One Whom I love

ershadmz September 14th, 2009

 

I am the One whom I love, and the One whom I love is myself.
We are two souls incarnated in one body;
if you see me, you see Him,
if you see Him, you see us.

- Al Hallaj
