Caravanserai Talib Al Habib

And so this traveller

Lost and weary wondering

far from home

Came atlast upon your Caravanserai

And where the ocean meets the sea

In grief and anguish he did weep

So long I’ve wondered and yet still

I  know not what I seek

And yet reflected in your eyes,

I see a truth that splits the night

So can you whisper to me,

The secret of what worship is

So you said “La Ilaha Il Allah”

( There’s no god but Allah)

Allahu… Allahu…

You cannot Worship until you Love

You cannot Love until you Feel

You cannot Feel until you Understand

You can’t Understand until you Learn

You cannot Learn until you have been found

Can’t be found until you seek

You will not seek nor find until you yearn

And you will not yearn until you Remember

So remember “La ilaha il Allah”

(There’s no god but Allah)

Allahu… Allahu…

The traveller’s heart stood and awoke

And born alloft on wings of hope

Beheld a deeper mystery

glimmering beneath your words

He cast himself before your feet and

Know that that of which you speak

Cannot be found by seeking

but only Seekers find it

Yet in the footsteps that you make

I see the path that I must take

So may I follow you and

Learn the secret that you keep

You said Remember and you will Yearn

Yearn  and you will Seek

Seek, seek, you will be found

And when you’re found then you will Learn

When you Learn then you will Understand

Understand and you will Feel

When you Feel him, then you will Love

And when you Love, then you will Worship,

Then you’ll Worship “La ilaha il Allah”

(There’s no god but Allah)

Allahu… Allahu…
