Every
Child
Has known God,
Not the God of names,
Not the God of don’ts,
Not the God who ever does
Anything weird,
But the God who only knows four words
And keeps repeating them, saying:
“Come dance with Me.”
Come
Dance.
- Hafiz (translated by Daniel Ladinsky in The Subject Tonight is Love: Sixty Wild and Sweet Poems of Hafiz)

Todos
los niños
Han conocido a Dios.
No el Dios de los nombres,
No el Dios de los "No"
No el Dios
Que hace algo raro
Sino el Dios que solo conoce cuatro palabras
Y las repite todo el tiempo, diciendo:
"Ven a bailar conmigo"
Ven.
A bailar.
- Hafiz
