    “God bless the rain, and the storm clouds that bring it.
    God bless the music, and the voices that sing it.
    God bless the ones who sing everything wrong.
    God bless the creatures who do not belong.
    God bless the hearts and the souls who are grieving
    For those who have left, and for those who are leaving.
    God bless each perishing body and mind,
    God bless all creatures remaining behind.
    God bless the dreamers whose dreams have awoken.
    God bless the lovers whose hearts have been broken.
    God bless each soul that is tortured and taunted,
    God bless all creatures alone and unwanted.”

    Attar of Nishapur
    “The people of this world are like the three butterflies
    in front of a candle's flame.

    The first one went closer and said:
    I know about love.

    The second one touched the flame
    lightly with his wings and said:
    I know how love's fire can burn.

    The third one threw himself into the heart of the flame
    and was consumed. He alone knows what true love is.”

    Than the Qur'an and the sacred Traditions.

    To take care of the secrets' treasury (the human heart).

    به ز قرآن مدان و به ز اخبار
    جز به دست و دل محمد نیست
    حل و عقد خزانهٔ اسرار
    چون دلت بر ز نور احمد بود
    به یقین دان که ایمنی از نار”
