In The #Depths of #Night

#Sufi #Poet Sayeeda Sharmin

In the depths of night, when silence reigns supreme,

A celestial light descends, a sacred, radiant stream.

The heavens bow low, the earth holds its breath,

Allah, the Eternal, visits His creation’s breadth.

Beneath the veil of stars, the world lies still,

Every heart whispers His name, surrendering to His will.

Shadows dissolve as His mercy unfolds,

In this divine moment, the universe beholds.

He comes not with thunder, nor with blazing fire,

But with the whisper of love, lifting hearts higher.

The trees sway gently, the winds softly hum,

Creation in chorus cries, “The Beloved has come!”

To the weary souls, He brings endless peace,

To the broken-hearted, His love grants release.

The moon reflects His light, serene and pure,

His presence eternal, His wisdom sure.

O mankind, awake! The night is alive,

His nearness calls, let your spirit revive.

Prostrate in the quiet, let your tears flow,

For in the depths of the night, His essence will glow.

Allah, the Most Loving, the Source of all Grace,

Visits His servants in this sacred embrace.

In the still of the night, His mercy rains,

Healing the wounds, erasing all pains.

So rise, O seeker, let your soul take flight,

For Allah comes near in the depths of the night.

A moment divine, a treasure untold,

A bond with your Creator, more precious than gold.
