The sky is a suspended blue ocean
The stars are the fish that swim
The planets are the white whales
I sometimes hitch a ride on
And the sun and all light
have forever fused themselves
Into my heart and upon my skin
There is only one rule on this Wild Playground
For every sign Hafiz has ever seen reads the same
They all say - Have fun my dear, my dear have fun
In the Beloved's Divine Game
Oh in the Beloved's Wonderful Game
