The End Of The Rivers Is The Fathomless Ocean Poem by Mohammad Younus

The end of the rivers is the fathomless ocean;
You think about the Ocean's wondrous depth...
...and then you feel the river's helpless flowing;
Ponder, where a river comes from and goes to;
What do you want?
To be in God's Presence is your rest!
Do not fancy to measure the depth of fathomless ocean;
Do not be like that Indian Sadhu...
... Who wanted to empty the ocean...
...by drawing out its water - mug by mug;
God is the fathomless ocean!
Sit on the shore and watch its waves...
... Chasing each other and making a melodious music!
Watch the vastness of the ocean as far as your eyes can go!
'Yea, turn thy vision again and yet again:
...and (every time) thy vision will fall back upon thee...
...dazzled and truly defeated!
Then look again and again...
...thy sight will return frustrated and weary.'!
