Call Of A Dervish Poem by Aftab Alam

Call Of A Dervish

Rating: 3.5


Strengthen your spine and get up without fear
Then you will find, what Lord do, O my dear!
I know-Those who wake up they are sure to get
Those who sleep, they lose; they curse the fate

These lines are always haunted me, always I heard
The wisdom of his words like a song from the bird
A long tongs in hand covered with blanket stroll
Like music it flows, ah soft silky pearly watery roll,

Still he walks in my mind with long chained tongs
My flowery face shines and lips -his wakeful songs

We should in wakefulness harness the opportunities that comes across us. Enjoyed the timeless wisdom of the Dervish.
