Just a few more, Hafiz...

THERE

There
I bow my head—
At the feet of every creature.

This constant submission and homage,
Of kissing God
All over,

Someday,
Every lover will
Do.

Only
There I prostrate myself—
Against the beauty of each form—

For when I bring
My heart close to any object
I always hear the Friend
Say,

"Hafiz, I am
Here."

–Hafiz
