Dance Poem by Matloob Bokhari

DANCE
He who listens the music,
But does not dance in his heart is deaf.
He who sees the light,
But does not dance in the sun is blind.
He who teaches,
But does not dance in the class is a tot.
He who receives the pleasure of heart,
But does not dance is not a Farhad.
He who soars on the wings of poesy,
But does not dance is a fluttering bird.
He who sees the Eternal Light,
But does not dance has not discovered Truth.
O my friend, when the intellect dies,
Then the soul flies to live in the house of Lord
Where everything moves in perfect love;
Everything dances in perfect harmony.
