Let there be hope that of these many sins
None, O Allah, will you cast into my face.
You are the Absolutely Kind, O Creator!
Forgive all that has passed, and overlook it.

O Creator, to You I am a helpless wayfarer; To You am I like an ant stuck in a pit.
I do not know what I am fit for, Or where I am or what or who I am.
Bodyless, luckless, profitless, Destitute, distracted, lacking heart

Ah alas,I have no comradeship frm anyone; My life has been lost in unachievement.
When I was able,I was unwitting. What was the use of that?When I became aware,I no longer had the power to act
Todayapart from impotence & apart frm helplessness,I have no means whatsoever #Attar25

I have no longing for the left-overs of the Sultan's table,
Nor do I have the punches on the back from his doorman.
Not an instant do I in solitude muster any patience;
Nor for a moment, in a heart remote from people.

I have not eaten the victuals of any tyrant,
Nor have I devised a patron's name for my book:

Thanks be to God that I am no courtier:
I am unattached to any of the unworthy.
How should I on my heart bondage impose,
Make the name of any riff-raff "lordship"?

The agony of the heart has become my spirit's enlarger.
The True Reality has become my unannihilatable treasure.

When I lay before me my meal of dry bread,
I moisten it from my own eyes with the salty liquid of the lost.
With my heart for this table I make a roast;
From time to time Gabriel I make my guest.

Although I am an 'aΘΘΓ‘r and dispenser of antidotes,
I have a heart burnt as black as dealers in adulterated musk.
There is a people with no salt and mightily ignorant;
Consequently, because of this, I pine in solitude.

Because I have poured out tears of blood
While I have pushed forward words of such blood-letting as this.
If you have the nose for my ocean profound,
You will sniff the scent of blood from my words.

This book is the ornament of the ages, Providing something for both high and low.
If one as frozen as ice saw this book, An excellent answer for him would emerge from behind the veil.

Your poem for lovers has provided the vade-mecum in mysteries.
On lovers it has bestowed forever this leavening of substance,
The recital by you, as is light by the sun, has been made complete:
The Language of the Birds & The Stages of the Birds

This time for once I have completed what I have to say. Doing is needed. How much longer must I talk? Depart in peace.
Oh 'AttΓ‘r you have over the world been scattering
The musk-bladder of mysteries, a hundred thousand every moment!

First He throws you in abasement out into the Way,
Then again He suddenly snatches you up in glory.
Become nothing, so that you might be suffused with Being:
So long as you are, how can Being enter into you?

How can this be addressed here?
For it, compiling a fresh book would be necessary,
Because the mysteries of al-baqΓ‘ and al-fanΓ‘ He knows who is fit for them.
So long as you are in being and in not-being,
How can you ever set foot in this halting-place?

After this, by an act of grace to those vanished birds,
The state of annihilation withdrawn, to themselves they were entirely restored.
When all the unselfed to self returned,
Into subsistence (baqΓ‘) out of annihilation (fanΓ‘) they came;

Since you have remained thirty birds amazed,
Been left without hearts and without patience, and without spirit,
We are infinitely better than any thirty birds,
Because We are the quintessential Thirty Birds.

Themselves the complete SΓmurgh they saw; The SΓmurgh Himself was all the time the sΓ murgh!
When upon the SΓmurgh they looked,
These sΓ murgh were He, that One in that place;

Then by reflection, the faces of the thirty birds of the world The face of the SΓmurgh found, from the world.
When these thirty birds looked hard, No doubt about it, these thirty birds were that "Thirty-Birds".

They all said to the moth: "Oh weakling, Until when will you be risking this precious soul?
Since you will not be brought by the candle into union, Do not surrender life in error. How much longer, pursuit of the unattainable?"

A long time has elapsed while we have been travelling this road;
Out of thousands, we 30 have reached the Gate.
In hope have we come from a long journey, That we might audience have of this Presence.
...
But at least out of kindness He may spare us a glance.

He saw thirty infirmly doting birds waiting,
Lacking wing and feather, at the end of their tether,
bodies melting.
From head to foot in amazement they were stayed,
Neither emptiness was left them nor repletion.

A world full of birds had been taking to the road;
No more than thirty made it to the end.
Thirty bodies without wings and feathers,
sore and feeble,
Broken-hearted, souls surrendered, bodies mutilated

I was a drop,I was lost in the Ocean of Mystery. I do not now that drop rediscover.
Altho to disappear is not for everyone, Yet I in fanΓ‘ did vanish & there are many like me.
Who is there in the world, from the Fish to the Moon, Who would not desire to become lost here?

How bravely have you shot up like a lightning flash,
But, for a parcel of rubbish, ended up stuck in mud and sand!
What is this you are doing? Come out like men bold.
Incinerate reason. Come out mad.
