**Then Almitra spoke, saying, We would now ask of *The Reader***
|
|
|
|
Almustafa, the chosen and beloved, addressed the one who reads this:
|
|
|
|
As the sea calls after me, so might it call to you.
|
|
|
|
As I answer the call of the sea and cannot tarry, so might you some day.
|
|
|
|
You, too, sail within my dreams:
|
|
|
|
You, who also bear the seed of the knowledge of God;
|
|
|
|
You, who also yearn for more, for the land, for the sky, for each other and for the sea;
|
|
|
|
You, who say that my shadow has been a light upon your faces and yet yours also upon mine;
|
|
|
|
You, who know the deepest loves and the hottest fires of hate;
|
|
|
|
You, who know the pain of tenderness.
|
|
|
|
I bask in the completeness of you
