The Other Thing

For a while, these carefree ones have hidden in the shadow of the heart, and that sun has shone from the heart's ceiling upon their souls.  
Every star has become a Venus, every particle a sun; the sun and stars before them have become like wandering particles.  
Those who lost their minds and hearts have taken their souls to Saturn; without a canopy or banner, each has become a Kai Khosrow and a sultan.  
You have killed many steeds and traveled around the world; travel within the soul and see a people entirely made of soul.  
With this divine gift, with this beauty and witness, look at the command-worshippers, immersed in the command.  
Like a mirror, their hearts, those hearts without malice, their hearts like the field of the sky, the sultan has gone to the field.  
From their cries and cheers and their sugar-like rubies, sweets and wine and the rest have become cheap in our city.  
If last night I was beside myself, I would not worry about my own mischief; I would remain saying, "I am beside myself."  
I will close my mouth now because I am bound to myself until the time when my heart is intoxicated by it.  
The sultan of the sultans of the soul, Shams of Tabriz, every soul has become an ocean from him, every body a coral from him.
