I WANT BOTH OF US
by Hafiz

I want both of us
To start talking about this great love
As if you,I, and the Sun were all married
And living in a tiny room,
Helping each other to cook, do the wash, weave and sew, care for our beautiful Animals.

We all leave each morning to labor
on the earth's field.
No one does not lift a great pack.
I want both of us to start singing like two traveling minstrels
about this extraordinary existence We share,
As if You, I, and God were all married
And living in ~ A tiny Room.
