*When a boy visits his fathers grave *
Oh, beloved!
When I visited you,
A light breeze touched my soul,
A nip of hope-filled my heart,
My feet trembles
My hand despairs
Memories struck me
Still,
I sensed your happiness,
From the plant that grew above you,
I know your, beneath me,
But still, I ignored the bitter truth.
I talk to you,
And, I envisage your answer,
From the presence of the nature,
It hurts me,
It shatters my heart.
I have been lost since you left me
I have been ignored since you were not with me,
After the talk, I visualised,
My body cried,
My eyes have no hope,
I have lost myself.
My soul bleeds,
Each time, I visits you,
Your qabr (grave) calls me,
I am helpless,
I am incapable.
But, I promise you, I'll be a faultless one,
I'll be the one!
And, all I do to recoup my soul,
Is to visit you.
Your qabr (grave) will be always visited by,
My helpless heart.
I need to hear your voice.
My heart will be back,
By the dua ( prayer) you have done to keep my heart strong and wise!
I AM YOU! Oh, beloved.
