Love Is A Traveler

what you most want,
what you travel around
wishing to find,
lose, as lovers lose themselves,
and you will find.

Fariduddin 'Attar (1142 - 1220)
Sufi Mystic, celebrated as one of Iran's most prestigious poets

From Ninety-Nine Names of Love: Expressions of the Heart edited by Priya Hemenway.
