Mohammad Younus Poems

Haiku

Enjoy autumn now,
The weather is just perfect,
...

Haiku

You only live once:
Sing, dance, play...
...

I am told I used to be in paradise...
...before my birth in the world;
I was expelled to earth as I defied...
...my Lord's command;
...

Haiku

Snow! Snow! Snow! Snow! Snow!
The sun rises to dissipate
...

The path of love does not pass either through temples or schools;
There you will be fraught with only desolation and delusion;
He who silently goes into his heart, he alone pursues the path of love;
His speech is eloquent of divine secrets about love and peace;
...

Hearken you who quest for knowledge about the Truth...
...from the Sacred Texts and the treatises of the philosophers!
Your quest is just the quest of a person who is lost in wilderness!
Heed my words, you are yourself the Book of God that contains the secrets!
...

Haiku

Black clouds thundering
Incessant rains, feeling cold
...

Haiku

Can't go to Kashmir
Locked in Bangaluru —
...

Haiku

Playing the snow-fight
Walking on snow in Siachen
...

Haiku

Sweet music I hear!
Dim lights, eyes shut, sitting, still!
...
