The Veil

Let the veils remain,

Let the pilgrim wander in vain.

For the secrets of divine love,

In the peoples' hearts remain.

The wanderer walks among the veils,

His eyes have sight, but it all is vain.

For to see the divine, the Godly essence,

Eyes don't matter, the heart has to be unchained.

And yet he walks, impaired at sight,

Among the veils, in the darkest of nights,

For within, he heard, a little voice,

He saw it glow, he saw it arise.

And as his heart, communed with the divine,

It delivered a message, so clear and refined,

Veils here and veils there,

Along the path, veils everywhere,

Be not deterred, oh pilgrim of love,

Beyond the veils, its heaven there…
