Page 10: The Sunni Revival - Brown University · Diwan-e Shams-e Tabriziand Masnavi • Major theme –Tawhid • Insan Kamil (?) Shams of Tabriz as portrayed in a 1500 painting in a page

I died as a mineral and became a plant,

I died as plant and rose to animal,

I died as animal and I was Man.

Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?

Yet once more I shall die as Man, to soar

With angels bless'd; but even from angelhood

I must pass on: all except God doth perish.

When I have sacrificed my angel-soul,

I shall become what no mind e'er

conceived.

Oh, let me not exist! for Non-existence

Proclaims in organ tones,

To Him we shall return.
