Qasida of Sayyidi 'Ali Wafa
When the confusion of the nafs (egos) vanishes and the breast is expanded, and the hobbling cord of the intellect is untied and the veil is lifted.
And the witness of the intellect listens to the heart, so there is no doubt in what the Ruh and Sirr relate.
So on the day after the death of our selves, whisperings and thought are replaced by knowledge.
The sources of existence are transmuted into gnoses, so the separation of this world is gatheredness, and the unseen of sublimity is proclaimed.
Habit is rent in the joining of the two opposites, so the contraction of other is expansion, and the even of other is odd.
You see everything as the whole thing, and you see its part as encompassing the whole of the whole, and containment is cut off.
So its one is one in the one of the singular, and intelligence has been forbidden its third by the Remembrance.
I have cautioned you about missing companions before it passes you by, they are a group who flee by Allah from Him to Him.
Answer a caller who calls you to Allah inwardly, and do not make excuses, for today will not accept excuse.
Remove the cause of distraction, for the moment is sharp, and sever the doubts of transmission, for report is not experience.
Withdraw from the desire of the nafs (ego) in every state, absolve yourself of it to Allah, even if it is dutifulness.
Preserve the contract of passion without lies, excuse is ugly in the judgement of the law of love.
When your heart is freed from the sickness of hidden shirk, then taste, drinking, and drunkenness will become pleasant.
After annihilation in Allah, be as you wish. Your knowledge is not ignorance, and your action is not a burden.
The inviolability of the people of love is majestic with me, and the value of the station of love is not surpassed by any value.
Their darkness is light, and their misguidance is guidance, their corpse is alive, and their slave is free.
Their contraction is expansion, and their poverty is wealth, their hardship is ease, and their shattering is mending.
Their respect is an obligation upon every Muslim. Their love is a bond and their hate is kufr.
None except the people of our desire obtains might. Every profit except their profit is loss.
If there is glory in the two abodes for a high one, by your life! this is glory in the two abodes.
