ONE WHO WRAPS HIMSELF

God called the Prophet Muhammad Muzzammil,
"The One Who Wraps Himself,"

and said,
"Come out from under your cloak, you so fond

Don't hide the candle
of your clarity. Stand up and burn
through the night, my prince.

Be the captain of the ship,
Mustafa, my chosen one,
my expert guide.

has been ambushed.
Fools are everywhere in charge.
Do not practice solitude like Jesus. Be in the assembly,
and take charge of it.

and be a communal teacher of souls. — Jalaluddin Rumi
