Sohbet of the Week (03 - 25) Sufi Poems – Mirabai - 14 Mirabai (1498-1546) was an Indian mystic and poetess. Her very personalized ecstatic songs of love, praise and lamentation have remained alive through the centuries and are still recited and sung by Hindus, Sikhs, Muslims and Christians alike on the Indian subcontinent today. * * *
An Arm Just Moved
You taught Your songs to the birds first, why was that?
And You practised Your love in the hearts of animals before You created the human being.
I know the planets talk at night and tell secrets about You.
An arm just moved before me, the beauty of this world is causing me to weep.
