Selected Persian Poems of the Promised Messiah (as) — Page 253
Love and Sincerity Love and Sincerity رسدندہ اجن اشفندن ےسک رہب سک دن انک ردصب دصق اک خ ی� � ا ہک قشع اتس No one dies or lays down his life for anyone else. It is love [alone] that compels a person to perform this task with the utmost sincerity. �ادن ش س خ �ب� در آشت وسزان ہک قشع اتس ِ ذم تّل اطلغدن ک رب اخ ہک قشع اتس It is love that makes one sit in the raging fire. It is love that makes one wallow in the dust of humiliation. �ی�رم د خ � چ � خ وشد نم � ک ےب قشع دےل اپ �دم رباہدن ک ی �ب� دام خ ی� � زک قشع اتس I do not believe that a heart could be purified without love. It is love that hastens to rescue [us] from this [mundane] snare.
