What a wanderer could wonder about...

Where is thy land?

I am drunk and you are mad
Who'll take us home...?
...
I asked "where is thy land?"
With laughter said
"Half from the Arabian sand
And half a heavenly strand."

"Half made of water and clay
Half soul and half solar ray
Half on the shallow beaches lay
Half from the oyster's pearly play."
...
-- Rumi
