137-Wheat Bread

Wheat Bread
Zohar

A person whose house was in the mountains
who did not know town dwellers,
Sowed wheat,
And ate the wheat
As it was.
One day he came to town.
He was served fine bread.
The man said:
What is this for?"
He was told:
"This is bread to eat."
He ate,
And it was most pleasing to his palate.
He said: "And what is this made of?"
"They told him: "Of wheat".
Then he was served
Cakes made with oil.
He tasted them,
And said: "And these, what are they made of?”
"They told him: "Of wheat.
Thus he was served foods fit for kings,
kneaded in oil and honey.
He said: "And these, what are they made of?”
"They told him: "Of wheat”.
:He said
"Certainly I possess all these
Since I eat
The main part of all these
"Which is wheat.
And because of this view
He did not learn how to make
All these delicacies
And did not know of the world's pleasures
And they were lost to him.
