In a desperate cry to the Lord, invoking the name of the Beloved who taught humanity the art of calling upon the Creator.

I beseech You

Countless,
When gives
Limitless,
When loves
Boundless,
When forgives

I beseech You

In the name
of Your
Beloved, who
Taught me

How
What
When
To call upon You

That Orphan
Of Mecca
Sultan
Of Medina

That lad
Of Amina
Love
Of Ayesha

That lord
Of as-Siddique
Leader
Of al-Farooq

That confidant
Of Ali
Playmate
Of Hasanain

Love’s companion
Dream’s chamber
Hope’s nest
Art’s inspiration

I beseech You

To respond
My rant
To answer
My want
