I am in love with light but do not fear the dark; If I don’t regret sin, I don’t boast of sinning either. Yesterday a seed, today a flower, tomorrow I’ll turn to dust; I am a gust of wind blowing over the desert garden – Now, a breeze, now rain, at times I sear in flames, But I move ever onwards – I’ll be lost if I stand still If I chance upon flowers, I fill my lap with fragrance And I spread it all over, smiling and cheering; If I chance upon a world of colors, I become a rainbow; In parti-colored glory, I dance like a white candle. In the house of revelry, when I find the cupbearer, I become a mad ecstasy, unfolding in dreams. If the world grows dark, bringing fire, lightning, and curse, I am a Puhktoon mountain of courage, intrepid and unyielding; And in times of mourning, I sit by the wise Laughing at them, And laughing at myself I’m maddened with cares, and tired of searching Is that not what I’m here for? I don’t understand – But on, on, and onwards I go, ever onwards, Toward a destiny I will one day reach; And whatever comes on the way, night or day, I revel in light But do not fear the dark. "Laughing at them and laughing at myself"...
