After Rumi (couplet)



When you dwell in my eyes   peering through them see me
my abode who espies   far beyond what eyes see?




==========
Based on this (presumably literal) translation from the Persian (provenance unknown):
Come into my eyes, and look at me through them,
for I have chosen a home far beyond what eyes can see.
