The Moment When I got Into My Heart Poem by Mohammad Younus

That moment when I get into my heart...
...crossing through the dark clouds...
...of the tempting nafs...
...the flashes upon flashes of light...
...enlighten me and make me conscious...
...of divine presence within me and...
...in the whole universe.

And I hear the divine voice speaking out...
...through intuition and inspiration, that...
...life is not revising the pages of past life...
...nor is it about thinking what pages are...
...waiting to be read in afterlife.

Life is rather writing the pages when...
...presently living in this world;
Life is the opening of eyes long before...
...the time they close for ever;
Life is the vision of the truth and reality
...and knowing divine knowledge, and...
...adding to wisdom for realising...
...the main purpose of life.

It is traveller walking through the desert...
...to reach his home;
It is worshipping while standing, kneeling...
...and prostrating before the Great God;
It is the man turning his back on evil living;
It is to enter the realm of divine presence...
...and finding himself astonished;
Eyes of heart when open at last...
...we fall in love with God and his children.
