Throw me like Yusuf into the well or even sell me cheap in the market of the Beloved, pleaded a lover unable to contain the love of Meem.

Throw me like Yusuf
Into the well of his madness

Sell me cheap
In his compassionate market

Blind me like Yaqoub
In the tears of his absence

Stir me to be restless
In his love’s silence

Intoxicate my senses
Liberate my lunacy:
Proclaim shall I, then
My love for Your Meem
