A well-known and oft-quoted Sufi classic by the 14th C Egyptian poet, Ibn bint Mayliq

Whoever tastes the flavour of the drink of the people knows it

and whoever becomes aware of it tomorrow [the Day of Resurrecton] will give his soul for it

Even if he risked his spirits, and sacrificed them

with every blink of the eye, it would still not equal it

A drop of it suffices all creation, had they but tasted,

they would declare themselves above all the worlds in drunken pride

The possessor of love, were he given the universe as a cup

to drink as many times as the number of souls, he still would not be quenched

Original:

من ذاقَ طعم شرابِ القوم يدريهِ          ومن دراه غداً بالروح يشريهِ
ولو تعرّضَ أرواحاً وجاد بها          في كل طرفةِ عين لا يُساويهِ
وقطرةٌ منه تكفي الخلقَ لو طعموا          فيشطَحونَ على الأكوان بالتيه
وذو الصبابة لو يسقى على عددِ الأن       فاسِ والكون كأساً ليس يرويهِ
