LOVE’S MANNERS AND CONVENTIONS
Whoever has not genuflected upon His threshold, the independent is not,
Whoever has not sacrificed himself to Her the lover is not.
Through the love course choose none-existence oh friend,
Whoever is apparently living in fact, the mankind is not.
The manners and the conventions of love is beyond our accounts,
Whoever is sober and awake the intoxicated by the wine is not.
Genuflecting to His threshold is surrendering to Him,
Whoever claims to exist, the surrendered and the mere obedient is not.
It takes many years to find the love path,
This path is especial for the rogues of the tavern, this way simple is not.
The darvish’s cloak is like the king’s crown,
The crown bearer and the cloak wearer away from the splendour is not.
As far as you are involved in splendour you can not smell the beloved,
Whoever has these chains round himself, ready is not.
