By Rumi
Because of your love
I have lost my sobriety
I am intoxicated
by the madness of love
In this fog
I have become stranger to myself
I’m so drunk
I’ve lost the way to my house
In the garden
I see only your face
From trees and blossoms
I inhale only your fragrance
Drunk with the ecstasy of love
I can no longer tell the difference
between drunkard and drink
Between lover and beloved
