كاظم الساهر Kadim Al Sahir Mahrous song lyrics

When love beckons to you, follow him

Though his ways are hard and steep

And when his wings enfold you yield to him

Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you

And when he speaks to you believe in him

Though his voice may shatter your dreams

as the north wind lays waste the garden

when love beckons to you follow him

For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you

Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning

Even as he ascends to your height

and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun

So shall he descend to your roots

and shake them in their clinging to the earth

when love beckons to you follow him

But if in your fear you would seek only love's peace and love's pleasure

Then it is better for you that you cover your nakedness

and pass out of love's threshing-floor

Into the seasonless world where you shall laugh

but not all of your laughter

and weep, but not all of your tears

Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself

Love possesses not nor would it be possessed

For love is sufficient unto love

when love beckons to you follow him, follow him

FOLLOW HIM
