A barter deal with God ********************** - Jaihoon One night in prayer a man cried to God As the burden of sins he couldn’t afford “Ya Rabb! You are the most just To trade with Your Mercy is best I am the slave No doubt do I have You are the Master Expecting naught when me You foster Yet I beg for something in exchange Which no one will have after my age May this fortune be mine alone This flag in the future be never flown Ya Rabb! May I serve all the wine of Your Beloved! For sons of Adam his love through me be doled. Give me those infinite words of Praise To eulogize him whose name means Praise And in return, Give me a sip of a drop of Kawthar’s drink For sure it will have my name in Paradise ink-ed This is what I ask of Your Bounty My goods are no more than scanty I am the slave No doubt do I have You are the Master Expecting naught when me You foster Ya Rabb! The nature of this world isn’t? The nature of Mustafa isn’t? ' |
