I look at the desert
I see the desert to be You!
I look at the ocean,
I see the ocean to be You!
Wherever I look,
be it mountains,
valleys,
or plains,
I see there
the signs
of Your stunning stature.
(Baba Taher, Translation by A. Godlas, Oct. 2016)
به صحـرا بنگرم
صحـرا تو بينم
به دريــا بنگرم
دريــا تو بينم
بهرجا بنگرم
كوه و در و دشت
نشان از قامت رعنا تو بينم
