Music: FATIMA WASHINGTON/Kamasi Tii Washington/ Kamasi music
When Love beckons to you, Follow him
though his ways are hard and his wings unfold you, yield to him
though the sword hidden may wound you, when he speaks to you believe
though his voice will shatter your dreams
يا رسول حدثنا عن الحب, يا رسول شاورلِنا إلى الحب,
فقال بصوته العظيم.. يا
For even as Love crowns you, so shall he crucify you.
Even as he ascends to your height, that quiver in the sun.
So shall he descend to your roots and shake them to the earth
Speak to us of Love
Like sheaves of corn love gathers you unto himself.
He threshes you,
He sifs you free,
He grinds you. He kneads you until he assigns you to his sacred fire,
That you may Become, Bread for God.
يا رسول حدثنا عن الحب, يا رسول شاورلِنا إلى الحب,
فقال بصوته العظيم.. يا
Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself
Love possesses not.
Nor would it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love.
Speak to us.
When you Love You should not say, God is in my heart,
But rather I am in the heart of God
And think not you can direct the course of Love
For If Love finds you, He will direct you
يا رسول حدثنا عن الحب, يا رسول شاورلِنا إلى الحب,
فقال بصوته العظيم.. يا
Desire Love, To be like a running brook, that sings to the night
to know the pain of too much Tenderness’
To be wounded by your own understanding
And willingly to bleed Joyfully
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
Give thanks to another day of love
to return home with gratitude
Then sleep with a prayer ‘ for Your Beloved
In Your heart a song of praise that rest upon your lips
Speak to us of love
يا رسول حدثنا عن الحب, يا رسول شاورلِنا إلى الحب,
فقال بصوته العظيم.. يا
