Number 4

There is no one without a path leading toward you; without the intoxication of your love, not a stone, a flower, or a blade of grass has any worth. You cannot find a single speck among all the specks of the world that does not carry a moon of your love shining in its heart.
Explanation: The 'moon' in the heart of every speck is a mystical image: every particle of creation holds the light of divine love.

شمارهٔ ۴

کس نیست کزو بسوی تو راهی نیست بی‌مستی او سنگ و گل و کاهی نیست
یک ذرّه ز ذرات جهان نتوان یافت کاندر دل او ز مهر تو ماهی نیست
