| Henna of a Him-Aligned Heart ------------------------------------- http://www.jaihoon.com/egoptics/hennaheart.htm Why do you keep losing things O the Dove blessed with noble wings What keeps your mind so occupied Your own senses have you defied So alien are the directions whereto you walk How many strangers' doors will you forgetfully knock O friend, isn't this world to you of any merit That everything in it you indifferently forget? Tell me, O Prized Dream! Are you so 'selfishly' dissolved in 'My Him' That everything worldly seems to you so dim? Which direction does your heart's compass turn When at all the sides does devil's violence burn? Share with me O Him-colored Rose! With what henna have you so enviously designed A heart that towards Him is always aligned? Your heart's fort is built so sweetly secure With the merciful bricks of the Almighty's Fear Reveal to me, O benevolent Friend! Teach me something of your own skill After which me you may sweetly kill. Alas! My foolish self. Lord knows where my own words are leading The ones who this endless tale are eagerly reading I shall better put the lid over the cup of my silly heart Or else I shall again be tried for arousing the poetic riot! - Jaihoon http://www.jaihoon.com/egoptics/hennaheart.htm |
