I have learned so much from God
That I can no longer
Call myself A Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim
A Buddhist, a Jew.
The Truth has shared so much of Itself with me
That I can no longer call myself a man, a woman, an angel
Or even pure soul.
Love has befriended Hafiz so completely,it has turned to ash.
And freed me
Of every concept and image my mind has ever known.
Hafiz - Persian poet (1315 – 1390), translated by Daniel Lazinsky
