Lover From Another World

The Mythical Lover

My love for you
has driven me insane
I wander aimlessly
the ruins of my life
my old self a stranger to me
Because of your love
I have broken with my past
My longing for you
Keeps me
in this moment
My passion
gives me courage
I look for you
in my innermost being
I used to read
the myths of love
Now I have become
the mythical lover

I Am And I Am Not

I’m drenched
in the flood
which has yet to come
I’m tied up
in the prison
which has yet to exist

Not having played
the game of chess
I’m already the checkmate

Not having tasted
a single cup of your wine
I’m already drunk

Not having entered
the battlefield
I’m already wounded and slain

I no longer
know the difference
between image and reality

Like the shadow
I am
And
I am not

The Agony And Ecstasy Of Divine Discontent

In the orchard and rose garden
I long to see your face.
In the taste of Sweetness
I long to kiss your lips.
In the shadows of passion
I long for your love.

Oh! Supreme Lover!
Let me leave aside my worries.
The flowers are blooming
with the exultation of your Spirit.

By Allah!
I long to escape the prison of my ego
and lose myself
in the mountains and the desert.

These sad and lonely people tire me.
I long to revel in the drunken frenzy of your love
and feel the strength of Rustam in my hands.

I’m sick of mortal kings.
I long to see your light.
With lamps in hand
the sheiks and mullahs roam
the dark alleys of these towns
not finding what they seek.

You are the Essence of the Essence,
The intoxication of Love.
I long to sing your praises
but stand mute
with the agony of wishing in my heart.

Prevod na srpski

Ljubavnik sa onog sveta

Mitski ljubavnik

Moja ljubav prema tebi
izludela me je
Besciljno lutam
ruševinama svog života
moje staro ja mi je strano
Zbog ljubavi tvoje
sa prošlošću sam raskrstio
Moja žudnja za tobom
drži me
u trenutku ovom
Moja strast
daje mi hrabrosti
Tražim te
u svom unutrašnjem biću
Nekad sam čitao
mitove o ljubavi
Sad sam ja postao
mitski ljubavnik

Ja jesam i ja nisam

Preplavila me
poplava
koja tek nadolazi
Vezan sam
u zatvoru
koji još ne postoji

Ne igravši
igru šaha
već sam šah mat

Ne probavši
ni čašu tvog vina
već sam pijan

Ne kročivši
na ratište
već sam ranjen i pogubljen

Ja više
ne vidim razliku
između mašte i jave

Kao senka
Ja jesam
i
ja nisam

Agonija i ekstaza božanskog nezadovoljstva

U voćnjaku i ružičnjaku
čeznem da vidim lice tvoje
U ukusu slatkoće
čeznem da poljubim usne tvoje.
U senkama strasti
za ljubavlju tvojom čeznem.

Oh! Vrhovni ljubavniče!
Dozvoli da svoje brige zaboravim.
Cveće cveta
likovanjem duha tvoga.

Tako mi Boga!
Čeznem da pobegnem iz zatvora svog ega
i da se izgubim
u planinama i u pustinji.

Ovi tužni i usamljeni ljudi čine me umornom.
Čeznem da ludujem u pijanoj pomami tvoje ljubavi
i da u svojim rukama osetim snagu Rustama.

Dosta mi je kraljeva smrtnika.
Čeznem da tvoju svetlost ugledam.
Sa lampama u rukama
šeici i mule lutaju
mračnim uličicama ovih gradova
ne nalazeći ono što traže.

Ti si suština suštine,
Ljubavna omama.
Čeznem da ti pevam hvalospeve
ali ostajem nema
u agoniji želja svog srca.
