Silence Is Not The Answer Poem by Mawlana AbulMaani Mirza AbdulQadir Bedil

We search for Your signs
We are amazed by what we find
We are silent because words cannot portray You
Weep of joy and amazement when thinking of You
Our awareness cannot justify You
Signs of Your existence everywhere
All that is concealed and revealed in the mirror
Who is the lucky witness?
We cannot reach You
Not even our thoughts
Nonexistence is the key to Your secret
The beginning defines the end
Every element of this world Your sign
My heart desperately seeks You
What else besides my writings can I offer You?
What I say is so far away from the truth
Silence is not the answer
