Go to the circle of love and purity
wherever it’s found;
go and attach yourself to the one
who takes you from yourself.
Keep away from
pretension and self-display;
go with sincerity and loyalty to the gathering
of those with spiritual states.
Don’t walk with hypocrites
and deceitful people;
go with the pain of love to seek
the one familiar with pain.
Befriend those who have
no consciousness of self;
go on the path where one doesn’t speak
about “you” and “we.”
Do not enter where
people gossip about others;
go with one who’s free
from such conduct.
The one who speaks of “I” and “you”
diverts you from the path;
go with those who are
annihilated from self.
Listen to Nurbakhsh and hear these words
that spring from love:
“Go to the feast where
the wine of God’s love is served.”
