Lyrics
When love beckons to you, follow him
Though his ways are hard and his wings unfold you yield to him
Though the sword hidden may wound you when he speaks to you believe
Though his voice will shatter your dreams
Ya Rasul, hamdina ila al-haq
Ya Rasul, shawwirna ila al-haq
Wahhala bi souni lathif
Ya
For even as love crowns you, so shall he crucify you
Even as he ascends to your height that quiver in the sun
So shall he descend to your roots and shake them to the earth
Speak to us of love
Like sheaves of corn, love gathers you unto himself
He threshes you, he sifts you free, he grinds you
He kneads you until he assigns you to his sacred fire
That you may become bread for God
Ya Rasul, hamdina ila al-haq
Ya Rasul, shawwirna ila al-haq
Wahhala bi souni lathif
Ya
Love gives not but itself and takes not but from itself
Love possesses not, nor would it be possessed
For love is sufficient unto love
Speak to us
When you love you should not say, "God is in my heart"
But rather, "I'm in the heart of God"
Think not you can direct the course of love
For if love finds you, he will direct you
Ya Rasul, hamdina ila al-haq
Ya Rasul, shawwirna ila al-haq
Wahhala bi souni lathif
Ya
Desire love to be like a running brook that sings to the night
To know the pain of too much tenderness
To be wounded by your own understanding, willingly to bleed joyfully
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
Give thanks to another day of love, to return home with gratitude
Then sleep with a prayer for your beloved
In your heart a song of praise will rest upon your lips
Speak to us of love
Ya Rasul, hamdina ila al-haq
Ya Rasul, shawwirna ila al-haq
Wahhala bi souni lathif
Ya
Ya Rasul, hamdina ila al-haq
Ya Rasul, shawwirna ila al-haq
Wahhala bi souni lathif
Ya
