Keep Looking

God is the only friend to the soul on the way to God 

You keep looking
You keep looking in a mirror in front of you,
Because there is no one like you
Except the image in the mirror
Where can I reach you, besides your image?
There is strength in the heart,
Soul and eye to see, but where are you?
You are everywhere, and at the same time, nowhere
Proof of your essence is hidden only in You
But it also appears everywhere
For yourself, you are only One For me,
I liken you to everything On your side,
there is attainment and union
On my side, loneliness, loneliness
The road to the Beloved is folded
When one falls in the grief of separation
God is the only friend to the soul on the way to God
