Persian Poem Poem by Amir Khusro
Persian Poem
I am a pagan and a worshiper of love: the creed (of Muslims) I do not need;
Every vein of mine has become taunt like a wire,
the (Brahman's) girdle I do not need.
Leave from my bedside, you ignorant physician!
The only cure for the patient of love is the sight of his beloved -
other than this no medicine does he need.
If there be no pilot in our boat, let there be none:
We have god in our midst: the sea we do not need.
The people of the world say that Khusrau worships idols.
So he does, so he does; the people he does not need,
the world he does not need.
Correction: my comment is not for this poem but for THE SHIRT modern poem of the day... Thanks...

I am a pagan and a worshiper of love: the creed (of Muslims) I do not need; ... that's the universal godly thought; I salute the pious saint Amir Khusro

Simply mind blowing poem. Much like how Tamil Nainars [ Shiva sect] and Azhwar Poets [ Vaishnava sect] perceived God is in similar imagery. Fantastic. salam salam to the Great Poet laureate. Thanks.
