And the meanings of the headscarf

In seclusion, in the corner

To follow you into trance

And the most generous spiritual station

Tears mixed with pain

From the purest vine

And live a content life

Hear my words and understand them

Is a secret you must keep

Look at their beauty and serve them

To the glorious divine presence

And you see the meanings of the headscarf

And the headscarf, o disciple

The useful secret appears to you

For the world will pass away

Makes redundant shirt and headscarf

Didn't leave anything of me
