Poem 113: Faith and Infidelity

It is hard to distrust me, and you may.
But I truly believe in what I say.
If you label me an infidel
I would be as mad as hell.
To the faith, I am the only one
With a committed bound.
If you call me a pagan
There would be no true believer around!

Here is the Persian Version of above poem, which has been written by Pur Sina (Avicenna):

کفر و ا یما ن

کفر چو منی گزاف و آسان نبود/ محکمتر از ایمان من ایمان نبود
در دهر چو من یکی و آن هم کافر/ پس در همه دهر یک مسلمان نبود
