What is to be done, O brothers?
I do not know who I am.
I am not a Christian, a Jew, a Zartoshti(Zoroastrian), or a Muslim.
I am not of the East, the West; the land, or the sea.
I am not formed by Nature; nor by the circling heavens;
Not by earth nor water, nor air nor fire.
I am not the king nor the beggar;
Not of substance nor of form.
I am not from India, China, nor a bordering country;
Not from Persia, nor the lands of Khorasan.
I am not of this world nor the next;
Not of heaven nor of hell.
I came not from Adam nor from Eve;
I do not dwell in Eden nor the gardens of paradise;
My place is placeless, my trace is traceless.
Nothing is mine, neither body nor soul –
All belongs to the heart of the Beloved;
I have seen the two worlds as one and that one called too, unknown.
Mulana Jalaluddin Rumi, Iranian Poet
