THE SOUL by ANONYMOUS

First Line: I AM THE FALCON OF THE SPIRIT WORLD
Last Line: WHO HAS ESCAPED FROM HIS NEST
Subject(s): SOUL;
I am the falcon of the spirit world,
Escaped out of highest heaven
Who out of desire of the hunt,
Am fallen into earthly form
Of the Mount Kaf am I the Simorg,
Whom the net of Being holds imprisoned
Of Paradise am I the Peacock,
Who has escaped from his nest.
