A New Dawn To Start A Journey Poem by Tawfeeq Hasan Khan

A New Dawn To Start A Journey



O thou traveller, this is a vital voyage,
Keep patience while turning each page...
It's is the start of a new journey, a new dawn
After the last night spent on the same lawn...
Keep upon you, faith and trust of your own,
At times when others just leave you alone...
It is a vital time and a rarest chance to quench,
Benifits of going today, plans for coming tomorrow...
Rather than to sit on a couch or a bench,
Singing melancholic songs of yesterday's sorrows...
As to succeed doesn't mean not to fail at all,
But to rise up each time we have a fall...
From the phases of youthfulness, quench life's beauty,
Before it gets cold here, you should have your tea...
As souls come and souls leave this world of sorrow,
As for you, there may or may not exist tomorrow...
