In That Moon Language

In that Moon Language
by Hafiz, translated by Daniel Landisky


Admit something:
Everyone you see, you say to them, 'Love me.'
Of course you do not do this out loud, otherwise someone would call the cops.
Still, though, think about this, this great pull in us to connect.
Why not become the one who lives with a full moon in each eye
that is always saying,
with that sweet moon language,
what every other eye in this world is dying to hear?




 Quoted by Father Greg Boyle in his interview with Krista Tippet in On Being here
