The noise of the lover is only up to
Once he sees the Beloved, he becomes calm and quiet,
just as the rivers are boisterous before they join the ocean,
but when they do so, there are becalmed forever.
The one who knows becomes perfect only when
all else is removed from in-between him and the Friend.
Either he remains or the Friend.
Muʿīn al-Dīn Chishtī [Muinuddin Chishti, also known as Ghareeb Nawaz; full name Chishtī Muʿīn al-Dīn Ḥasan Sijzī] (1143 - 1236) Iran
