For Some People When The Last Hour In Life Comes Poem by Mohammad Younus

For some people when the last hour in life comes,
They cannot say the bold Yes or the No;
They are afraid that they are losing the battle of life,
And have to go out;
But there are some who at once say the bold Yes,
Because they are ready for continuing,
Their onward journey;
They are ready within, and say fearlessly Yes;
They are conscious that this forward journey,
Will take them from honor to honor;
They are those who are strong in their conviction;
However, there are some who shamelessly say bold No,
And refuse to further go;
But, he who refuses is dragged by his forelock,
To walk on the road of life;
He who says bold Yes does not repent;
When asked again, he'd still say Yes;
And that Yes— the right Yes —
Is inscribed on his forehead;
I tell you the sign of a true believer—
When death comes, there is smile on his face (Iqbal) .
