I turn my gaze in Your direction
Please turn Your gaze in mine
I take one step straight towards You
And suddenly I find
You take three secret steps
Inside my seeking mind
I continue walking toward You
And truly I’m amazed
You run to me with arms outstretched
The Determiner of Days
Tenderly You say to me,
“You were Born to Run always”
Please turn Your gaze in mine
I take one step straight towards You
And suddenly I find
You take three secret steps
Inside my seeking mind
I continue walking toward You
And truly I’m amazed
You run to me with arms outstretched
The Determiner of Days
Tenderly You say to me,
“You were Born to Run always”
This poem is my adaptation of a traditional Sufi saying:
If he turns his gaze in My direction, I turn My gaze in his. If he takes one step towards Me, I take three steps towards him. And if he comes to Me walking, I come to him running."
If he turns his gaze in My direction, I turn My gaze in his. If he takes one step towards Me, I take three steps towards him. And if he comes to Me walking, I come to him running."
