....................my beloved asks,'in separation we talk about union.
in union what shall we talk about?'
..................the answer is easy,
'just be in separation;
...so that in union,
.........you know how
..................to appreciate
.........................communion.'
hear o dervishes,
...enjoy what comes!
........learn to appreciate.
........................be grateful.
enjoy even
.....this sweetness
............of separation.
just as you long for union today,
........who knows!
may be you'll miss
...this strange sweetness
........in the moments of union!
separation is preparation.
(of union)
enjoy this preparation,
...........and may bliss
.....................be your union.
