For more about Khwaja Abdullah Ansari, who was known as the Pir of the city of Herat in Afghanistan, see this earlier post.
O seekers:
Hurry up.
O night travellers:
Don’t go to sleep, for the morning is near.
O hurrying ones:
Be steadfast, for the station is near.
O thirsty ones:
Be patient, for the spring is near.
O strangers:
Be gratified, for the Host is near.
O you who are looking for the friends of God:
Be delighted, for the welcome is near.
Translation A.G. Ravan Farhadi
