INTRODUCTION of Sufi dervishes and singers. One of them, Baba Kuhl, has a song which I am tempted to quote, as it is filled with the vision and melody of Mira :
In the market and the cloister,
Only God I see! In the valley and on the mountain,
Only God I see! I behold Him beside me : In favour and in fortune,
Only God I see! In prayer and in fasting, In praise and contemplation,
Only God I see! Neither soul nor body, Neither qualities nor causes,
Only God I see! Like a candle I melt in His Fire! Amid the flames out-flashing,
Only God I see! I look with God's Eyes
And only God I see! I pass away into nothingness, I vanish in the Beloved : And lo! and behold!
Only God I see!
