Like a silent fire,
You surrounded me.
With your piercing gaze,
You captured me.
Like a drifting island,
You made me.
Along the parting of my hair,
You showered like rain.
A new Ramadan crescent,
God has gifted here.
With His boundless love, I too
Overflowed completely.
I am here as your blanket;
Gather me up
And wrap me around you every single day...
Like a silent fire,
You surrounded me.
With your piercing gaze,
You captured me.
The loud voice of my words,
You silenced forever.
Along the parting of my hair,
You showered like rain.
O beloved, my dearest one,
You are the thirst
That the clouds in the sky seek.
Like the bright moon in the sky
That gathers up desire day by day,
You are that longing.
Will this sweet tenderness last a little longer?
Bathe,
Back and forth within the sea of my body.
Bathe,
In the deep whirlpool of my soul,
Run and dive deep.
As midnight burns with your warmth,
While I melt and freeze in place,
All the softness of my body gives way,
And my tender body trembles.
Inside paradise,
Like a sweet musk jasmine,
These blooming dreams...
...
In a crescent of water,
I became a burning fish.
Dripping sweet rosewater nectar,
I became a flower.
Soaking into the wet sand,
I became the water.
Drinking up forests and oceans,
I became a deep hunger.
Never drying up through winter or summer,
You are the pure Zamzam water.
Sent as a message of pure, perfect love,
You are its living essence.
Pouring myself into you again and again, I found comfort.
Like a silent fire,
You surrounded me.
With your piercing gaze,
You captured me.
Like a drifting island,
You made me.
Along the parting of my hair,
You showered like rain.
