Straight Path Poem by Colonel Muhamad Khalid Khan

Whosoever tells the truth and travels on straight path
Is considered rashly lunatic and taken for granted
He has to face all hatred, all contempt and the wrath
His entire life passes like an innocent dear haunted

Victim of ego and prey of hounds and the vultures
He goes through pain in heart from all in and out
It is very difficult to live and strive among all archers
But he takes wisdom from faith to be more stout

A man of principle goes happily through every fire
Even if he is burnt he surpasses time for salvation
Being conscientious he encounters every quagmire
Son of morality he rises from clouds like fiery sun

Col Muhammad Khalid Khan
