Hazrat Inayat Khan

Riding on the Horse of hope


Holding in my hand the rein of courage


Clad in the armor of patience


and the helmut of endurance on my head


I started on my journey to the land of love





A lance of stern faith in my hand


and the sword of firm conviction buckled on


with the knapsack of sincerity


and the shield of earnestness


I advanced on the path of love





My ears closed to the disturbing noise of the world


My eyes turned from all that was calling me on the way


my heart beating the rhythm of my ever-rising aspiration


And my blazing soul guiding me on the path


I made my way through the space





I went through the thick forest of perpetual desire


I crossed the running rivers of longing


I passed through the desert of silent suffering


I climbed the sheep hills of continual strife





Feeling ever some presence in the airm I asked "are you there my love?"


and a voice came to my ears, saying;" No, still further I am"
