The world is in touch with the stars

Under the shadows of the trees with branches facing the sky
Amongst the cinnamon-scented memories, I’ll find you
Come on and introduce me to the earth,
The most beautiful stone I’ll find, and give you
For I know your color, I’m not afraid of you
I love you, for I know your color

You are a universe that can fit in my heart
you are a sign of love that I carry in my chest
you are the ultimate revealer of all beings,
and the apple of the eye of the theatre of life
Your heart is the phoenix's nest
and your eyes are black holes
that swallow everything.

Give your hand now
let's enjoy this celestial show
let’s be in touch with the stars.

That's so beautiful! You have captured the concept of mysticism accurately. I also read Arabic poetry sometimes. I would recommend Rumi, Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Ahemed Faraz and Sir Allama Mohammad Iqbal.
