IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST MERCIFUL, THE MOST COMPASSIONATE

Mountains are to be crossed,
Roads are to be run [on],
Flowing waters are to reach the ocean. [ocean==God]
In the name of each one of us,
Our pleadings are read [expressed]. [each one of us pleaded]
Each one of us has put on
The love of my Rabb.
Let one not think that the love [that is] in our hearts
Has run out.
From one hand to a[nother] hand [? From one human to a[nother] human ?]
Let no harm [badness] be presented.
We wished for the one that is good deed,
We waited for the one that is good deed.
Until [to]day
We kept our loves in our hearts.
Let us not hide our loves:
Let us spread [our loves] to our surrounding.
What are in our ego
Let us peel [them][so that] they do not give [cause] weight.
We will cross the cold waters,
When day comes we will overflow,
We will always run to beautiful. [? We will always run to The Beautiful [ONE]. ?]

We made Mevlana's and Yunus's love
Our habit.
Whoever is around us
We acquired [him/her] as [our] lineage.

We met with Meryem. [Meryem=Virgin Mary]
We acquired each place as our village.
Villages are our village,
Waters are our water.
The most beautiful habits are our habit.
Love as much as you can love,
Praise [HIM] as much as you can praise.

Each creation
Is the artwork of my Rabb,
Is the design of my Rabb.
Let us try to be
HIS hand,
HIS eye.
Let us get used to love one another.
If we are created from HIS love
[then] We should come together in HIS love.

Eras [epochs] bring eras;
Each new era that comes
Gives the smoke of its own stove.
Each one of us should gather in that stove;
We should add our loves to one another.
Then
Our hand becomes Rabb's hand,
Our eye becomes Rabb's eye.
Then
HIS saints
Come always to our path.

Meryem said: [Meryem=Virgin Mary]
Under each tree
An angel sleeps.
In every home
A baby grows.
Humans, group by group
Find each other.
Each one of us,
We are in effort to be human,
You should be [in the same effort] too.
You should find the crown of humanity on your head.
We got the pleading of each one of you.
Each one of us
We saw ourselves in our Rabb.
Let us not speak without reason,
Let us not add word to spring waters. [let one not distort the chats]

Meryem and Fatima
Tied word to word;
For each word of Fatima
Flowing waters splashed.
She said:
The ones who enter the rose garden, [rose==Prophet Mohammad]
The ones who give the morsel that is in their hand,
The ones who distribute the love that is in their heart,
We are next to them,
We are in their direction,
We are on their path.
Let greeting be to all of you,
Let each one of you pray:
"My Rabb
Do not leave me without YOU,
Let our lands be fertile."
Let my Rabb's name stay in our tongues.

Let peace be, let peace be, let peace be.

Allahu Ekber [Allah is The Greatest], Allahu Ekber, Allahu Ekber.

Lailaheillallah Muhammeden Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped; we wish to YOU and to Your Representative Mohammad.]

LOVE, SEE & SHARE:

Love all HIS creations;
See HIM in all of HIS creations;
Share HIS Meaning.
