BISMILLAHIRAHMANIRAHIM [IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST MERCIFUL, THE MOST COMPASSIONATE]
I planted the sapling of walnut,
I poured its water to its root.
I promenaded, I walked,
I saw, I rejoiced.
I interpreted every event as good deed.
I wrote my name on the leaf of the walnut,
Day comes, they read [what is written on the leaf].
One weaves silk
From the leaf of mulberry.
From the fruit that walnut gives,
You find cure.
You are in every moment
In the surroundings of your close friends.
Mevlana said:
Whatever is in the essence, in the word, in the eye,
It is in your building,
It is at your door that is open. [? The one that is open, is at your door. ?]
[through eye, IT enters your building; with word you get out of your building; your Essence is in your building...] [your building==your body/your cage]
Yunus Emre said:
If I take the apple,
If I give [it] to one’s hand, it is his/her cure.
Farther than that,
If I see its flower, it is one’s delight.
If my hand is on the sieve,
If my word comes from the memory,
I will please my heart,
I will stay in hearts.
Word of Hadji Bektas:
His eye is upon all universe. [he watches all universe]
He gets pleasure from the soil as well as
His eye is upon the mountains.
I asked saying, “What do you say [sing] with your saz?” [saz=a stringed musical instrument; saz==song of heart]
He said:
I gave one sack of wheat as gift.
They spaded the soil,
They handled the wheat,
The growing grains became tall,
They grew, they became ear.
I traced the borders with poplar. [I planted polar trees at the borders of the field]
I solved humans with my love.
Love
Is the biggest ‘hikmet’ [hikmet=1. wisdom. 2. philosophy. 3. real meaning, hidden meaning. 4. purpose, point. 5. the unknowable intentions of God.]
That my Rab presented to the universe.
[love] Is the gratitude that human feels toward Allah.
Hadji Bayram said:
The weight of humans
Should be real.
The scale should not give [show] any residue.
Love
Is Hak’s Giving
That ties the creation to one another.
What separates the straight [correct], the curved [wrong]
Is the judgment of Hak.
Let us be in HIS straight,
Let us know The Reality That is
In ourselves.
Hodja Ahmet Yesevi said:
Belief in Hak
Makes the ones that are difficult, easy, [difficult becomes easy]
[belief in Hak] Reconciles human with the nature.
The one who does not know his/her humanity
Troubles his/her surroundings;
My Rab does not love this,
HE does not praise the one who is in fault.
Lokman said:
If you boil the wheat,
If you take its water,
Every morning, empty stomach,
One cup of tea: [as much as one tea cup]
One should mix [it with] rose water and one tea spoon of honey
And drink.
And when going to bed in the evening,
Pass the remaining wheat through the mill,
Transform [it] into the state of pomade,
Spread [it] on the wounded places.
Spread [it] every day or night
On wounds.
Wash after one hour.
It is not necessary to put honey
In the pomade.
Its cure is a lot,
The One Who gives is Hak.
Sari Ana said:
The path that is waited for is open.
The path that is watched is passage.
Humans are of various kinds,
Try to be close friend [with them],
Get used to see [them] as beautiful.
Love opens the passages that are closed.
Human chooses the one whom/that he/she wishes.
The one who knows him/herself
Takes each word of Nuh, [Nuh=Noah]
Sees Whatever he/she has in him/herself.
Everything That is Beautiful
He/she finds on HIS display.
Meryem [Virgin Mary] and Fatima,
Their essences, their words [are] one,
Their loves [are] abundant.
On earth, in the universe,
They are mothers who are ‘pir’ for humanity. [pir=spiritual guide; leader of a group of dervishes; founder of a dervish order.]
Meryem says:
I untied all knots,
I always filled jugs.
Whoever wants, I give,
Whoever wishes, I braid his/her hair.
Fatima said:
My life, my tie [connection], my head.
All universe is my dream.
My food [is] at every table.
I saw, I will see,
I will be at your exhibition,
They said, they greeted, they walked.
Hazrat Ali said:
My head, my hand, my foot.
My arms are open to worlds.
We are the one who loves,
The one who is loved.
Each one of us,
We find The One Who is Hak.
They said, “Selam,” they stood,
They greeted each one of us, one by one.
Let selam [peace/greeting] be, let selam be, let selam 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.]
