Nabil

A simple shepherd and gifted poet
His heart is calling, his passion flows from within, his search begins
Star-gazing, contemplating
He lies there waiting and prostrating
All for his love, his love
When the object of his search has ended
The love pours in, his heart’s contented
Devotion to His cause
From land to land he delivers a message
His light shines out, all through the wreckage
Invoking what’s within
The heart longs to be with Him
Across the seas, across the land, to find his way home where it all began
In his heart
Across the sea, across the land, to find his way home where it all began
In his heart, in his heart
Don’t let me lose You, 'cause I am alone
Imprisoned for my words, my heart’s on fire
Return to You, You let me in, my love will never die
Two oceans that collide, I am Yours You are mine
Two oceans that collide, I am Yours You are mine
When his one desire is beckoned home
The pain so deep, he’s all alone
A final word from his pen
He walks into the endless sea
His flame extinguished, the end of anguish
His heart it beats no more
And the love it fills his soul
«Whither can a lover go but to the land of his Beloved?»
(Bahá'u'lláh, Persian Hidden Words, #4)
