Music Has Been With Me Poem by Mohammad Younus

Music has been with me
for all my life,
present since the Day of Alast,
keeping me connected
to my Essence.
It's through music
I remain afloat,
on the running stream of time—
passing over the rocks
of illusion and delusion.

Music stays with me,
in good times and bad,
guiding me through
the heavy black clouds,
beneath the layers
of light upon light,
so sublime,
always leaving my face
with a smile.

Divine music enters my ears,
bringing glory and grace
to my soul, heart, and mind,
changing me
with every chime.
It's hard to part
from this sacred song,
for so much music flows
for the heart's ear to hear,
carrying ecstasies
so sublime.
