Devotion
This Rumi poem turns to the four known and the fifth unknown element:
یک لحظه و یک ساعت دست از تو نمیدارم
زیرا که تویی کارم زیرا که تویی بارم
***
Not a moment goes by
that you cease to be in my heart
Amongst all flowers
I only breathe your fragrance
I am your prey oh, ferocious lion
but rather than escape,
I offer you my heart
Your light is hidden,
but it has set this worldly garment on fire
I stand drinking the cool water you have given me and watch it burn
***
