O good man, why you are sad?
Things are becoming difficult for you?
Running has become impossible,
even walking is difficult,
moving upstairs is more troublesome,
going downwards is easier.
O ignorant man, why you are sad?
Slowly and gradually God is preparing you,
to march forward on a Milky Way,
that leads to the light you are made of,
soon you will be at home,
turned out due to your sin!
O thanks less man, why you are sad,
you are indebted of God,
the miseries of life were the repayments,
get yourself ready to repay the last installment,
ahead is a journey full of romance,
and the merciful God to welcome you back!
Akhtar, in a poem I was really enjoying, I've been tripped up by this line: 'turned out due to your sin! ' Hmm? Are you now speaking of ME? ! ! bri : )
Very impressive poem inspiring to be ready in a brilliant way for the heavenly bright after life. Kudos!
Slowly and gradually God is preparing you......loved this precious line!

Nice poem giving hope to senior citizens so often unable to perform the simplest tasks on week limbs. Believing in afterlife and knowing that eventually only light of soul survives does give some solace and assurance to faithfuls. Nice to read you Akhtarji after a long time.
