The Farewell Of Light Poem by Mohammad Younus

The Farewell of Light: —

(A Song woven From The Thread Of Abu Bakr's Words) :

The lamp is veiled, yet its glow remains,
The voice is hushed, yet the truth sustains.
O hearts that tremble, O eyes that weep,
The Trust is not lost, nor does faith sleep.

He walked among us, gentle and bright,
A mercy to guide us from darkness to light.
His breath was a prayer, his glance was grace,
A beacon of love, a soul of embrace.

But he was a man, a servant true,
Who spoke of the One, the Eternal Hue.
If you loved him, know—he was but a guide,
And guides must pass like the ebbing tide.

Yet the river still flows, the stars still gleam,
His echo resounds in every stream.
Whoever worshipped him, now let them see—
He has returned to where he was meant to be.

But worship the One who does not die,
The Lord of the earth, the sea, and the sky.
For He remains, Ever-Living, Supreme,
The Keeper of souls, the Weaver of dreams.

O Companions, do not despair,
His love still lingers in the air.
His book, his ways—hold firm, hold fast,
And you shall find him at journey's last.

Though his form has faded, his truth still shines,
Beyond all borders, through endless times.
So rise, O hearts, be steadfast, be strong—
Let not his message be lost in the throng.

For we shall meet at the fount one day,
Where sorrow shall vanish, and night turns to day.
Till then, let his name in our hearts be bright,
The lamp is veiled, but never its light.
