Words to welcome Infinite Love
from the Sufi tradition
You come to us
from another world
from beyond the stars
and the void of space.
Transcendant, pure
of unimaginable beauty
bringing with you
the essence of Love.
You transform all who are touched by you.
Mundane concerns, troubles, and sorrows
dissolve in your presence,
bringing joy to ruler and ruled
to peasant and king.
You bewilder us with your grace
All evils transform into goodness
You are the master alchemist
You light the fire of love
in earth and sky
in heart and soul
of every being.
Through your loving,
existence and nonexistence merge
all opposites unite.
All that is profane
becomes sacred
again.
-Rumi
