Analysis of I Am Raising
I am not Rumi
Nor Iqbal
But I am in the way
Of them
Rumi's love
Iqbal's philosophy of Self
I give love
I show Self
I do not follow
The terms
That humiliate the human
I believe in an isonomy,
Justice, forgive, tolerance
And love to everyone
Without status, rank
I dance
I sing
In Divines' rhyme
I feel, I see
Everywhere is fine
I am raising
The eyes of the word
Will turn toward me soon
Come to my world
Here is peace
Of heart and mind
Come and sign
And everywhere shine.
