WHO ASKS WHAT I AM


Who asks what I am, listen, and understand my song:
Water, earth, fire and wind are my body,
Four walls composed by the elements in conflict,

This is a miracle, a gift of His command.

Wind and earth come together in air,
Fire finds its peace in water,
Destiny, life and death are then bestowed,

And the six directions created.

Let no one tell me about my soul, this is
Controlled by the One who gives me life,

And let my senses be open wide: always recognizing

His existence everywhere is the greatest good.

Our mind does not give us today's news, if we
Think about it, our mind dwells on yesterday's news,

Perception and reason will not go beyond this point where,

From there on, my world has died in this world.

O Yunus, how strange, you have so much here, with
The inner heart the place of my Love, with my tongue to witness this.
