zauq jo madrase ke bigDe hue hain mulla

'zauq' jo madrase ke big.De hu.e hai.n mullaa
un ko mai-KHaane me.n le aa.o sa.nvar jaa.e.nge

Ibrahim Zauq

Sufi-Terminology

The intozication a lover feels after drinking the wine of Divine love. It is ecstasy a lover feels on hearing the words of the Beloved. It is also senselessness that results from beholding the Magnificence of the Beloved. This rapture overwhelms the seeker and brings on a condition of total absorption (wajid), when he completely loses awareness of self. The initial effect of the vision of the Divine Beloved is zauq, and its ultimate effect cannot be described.
