I have come
to take you by your hand,
and bring you to myself.
I have come
to shine your way
as you walk this path.
I will make you guiltless,
I will make you fearless,
then I will place you in the
brightest point in the universe.
I have come like a breeze of spring
to your field of flowers,
so I can hold you by my side,
and embrace you tight.
I have come
to take you by your hand,
and bring you to myself.
I have come
to shine your way
as you walk this path.
Like the cry of lovers,
I will help you reach the
roof of heavens.
From the dust of the earth to a human being,
there are a thousand steps.
I have been with you through these steps,
I have held your hand and walked by your side.
And I will be with you
as you move beyond this human form
and soar to the highest heavens.
Rumi poem translated by Shahram Shiva
