"O lovers, O lovers, it is time to abandon the world, The drum of departure reaches my spiritual ear from heaven Behold, the driver has risen and made ready the files of camels And begged us to acquit him of blame; why, O travellers are you asleep? These sounds before and behind are the din of departure and of the camel-bells; With each moment a soul and a spirit is setting off into the void."
Rumi
