Look! The camel driver has risen, The caravan is about to leave...by Rumi

Look!
The camel driver has risen,
The caravan is about to leave,

He says, 
“Forgive me for waking you …
But why, O pilgrim, are you asleep?

Before you and behind you
The camel-bells are ringing.
It’s time to go.

With each passing moment
A soul sets off to find itself

From the stars,
Suspended like candles
From the blue vault of heaven,

Wondrous souls have appeared
And the Unseen has revealed itself.

~ Rumi
