Not from here or there,

Where are you from?

Not native nor foreign,

Which border are you loyal to?

No border no chains,

Which confinement are you enclosed in?

Not religious or non-religious,

Which way of life are you obedient to?

No caste or creed,

Which fellowship do you represent? 

You are the one who knows not of himself,

Apparently a human being,

Once told to be the highest form of creation.

However, you are weary of all doctrines,

You are free from all regimens.

You are captivated by the melody of love,

Its colours and smell.
