the crowd cried 'bewitchment!'
when rabia's prayer mat flew
buoyed on love she stepped aboard
as they threw pots and stones
missing her by inches
'try the unway' she advised them
'or you won't see where you're aiming'
the crowd became stupid with grief
when rabia brought her torch and pail
some bear hugged her from behind
and others gripped her clothes
but she passed straight through
she extinguished fear of hell
and ceremoniously razed heaven
