I am slave of my moon [in Farsi: من غلام قمرم]

RUMI:
I am the slave of the moon.
Speak only of the moon.
In my presence,
Speak of candles and sweets.
Do not speak of pain,
Speak of treasures…
Ignore this absence of news --
Say nothing.
I answered: “Alas, love,
It is something other that I fear!”
He said:
“This other thing is no more --
Say nothing.”
