Translation - Turkish-English - Sen benim;Yaradan’dan ötürü yaradılanı sevişim,...

Hi buketnur

Sounds like someone is making a very positive difference to someone else's life

To make the English text flow a bit better, what do you think of this suggestion?

You are the reason why I love the creatures because of the Creator is there any other way we could say this? It sounds a bit twisted, but I can't think of a better way, the reason why I take ten steps towards the one who takes one step towards me...
And you are the reason why I can accept everyone as they are...
And you are the reason why I am grateful for today
and praying for tomorrow, why I am content with less, not wanting more...
And my palm (-> is it implied here that you are my palm? I think in that case, we should say it as it is not clear in English)
...which is never closed...
(Mevlana)

Before edits:

You are the reason of my loving the creatures because of the Creator, my drawing ten steps near to the one who comes one step towards me...
And you are my accepting everyone as they are...
And you are the reason to thank for today
and praying for tomorrow, being content with the less, not wanting the more...
And my palm
...which is never closed...
(Mevlana)

This includes a few sufistic sentences about love.
That is a purport of a holy hadith which says that Allah commends that "If slave closes me one handspan, I come near him/her one yard.If he/she closes me one yard, I closes her/him one fathom. If he/she comes near to me by walking, I comes near him/her by running."

Also this a fine advice of Mevlana: "Love the creatures because of the Creator"
It recommends us to love all people, all living things because all creatures have a piece of part from the Creator. If you love your GOd , you must love all creatures that he created.

Also in original there isnt a sentence like "you are the reason of my..." , they are "You are my ..." I preferred to translate with the word "reason" to make a sense

Mevlana is known as 'Rumi' or 'Mewlana' outside Turkey.

I love the creatures for the sake of the Creator...> I love the creatured because of their Creator

Not a lot of votes here
Could one of you experts please come and have a look and tell me what you think?
Thanks!
