Once upon a velvet night … A Jerusalemite night
The moon approached the moon
Two moons embraced
Like, true lovers, they gazed and exchanged tenderness
The moon whispered to his beloved’s ear
Sweetheart, let me dry your tears
Your tears shook the Throne of the Most Sublime
Your dignified sighs shattered the cosmos
Yesterday, my beloved
Epoch told us a story
About a Universe
Who fell in love with a moon
A never ending love story
Between Eternal and mortal, Infinite and finite
Heaven and Earth entwined
Planets bowed down, and stars prostrated in awe
Between a rock and Paradise
A rope of light unfurled
Here, galaxies kissed earth
Here, prophets prayed in adoration
Here, an oath… Here, a promise
Here, joy, bliss and delight
Here, souls of martyrs flew above
Buoyant, to drumbeats below
Here, the chanting of angels
Following footsteps of the messenger
Here, the sound of truth is loud and powerful
Here, falsehood is defeated
Here, darkness of oppression does not stand a chance
Here, hearts are consoled, wounds are healed
