Children of Adam, Rejoice, as the Moon calls,
It says, Become aware
of the gentleness of my light.
Make your nights
mindful and aware
Empty your days of
their harsh chasing.
Restrain your daily
desires, feel the pangs of withdrawal
Followed by the
liberation of victory
Bathe in my soft
light and stand in praise of your Sustainer
Let go of delusions
of sustenance, only through restraint
Will you see through
this mirage of fulfilment
You’ll return in
anticipation, to your soul’s rhythm
Love and praise,
praise and love, without covetousness or flattery
You would have burnt
a path to your core, your spine of existence
This is the
Joy you feel when you hear the Moon’s call
Children of Adam, make
merry while the ethereal contentment lasts,
Tomorrow may be Eid,
when the Sun’s dominance returns,
With its blazing rays
of production and consumption
That overwhelm your
Soul’s flickering moonbeams.
So now, dance with
the Moon and
Sing the Message in
evening vigils , and rejoice.
