The Morning Sun Came Out Poem by Mohammad Younus

The morning sun came out,
Birds woke up from sleep -
Sprang out of their dreams,
Rubbing the eyes and yawning,
Every bird came out of its nest,
Sitting for a while...
...on tree branches and boughs...
...sang sweet melodies,
And, then, flew off into azure skies,
To some unknown place far away,
Me too followed them...
Through the silent celestial space,
...while listening to the magical voice;
Then, the flocks of flying birds...
...disappeared from the eyes,
But, I kept walking in the spiritual skies,
Landmarks of the earth below: --
Snowy peaks, glaciers,
Green valleys, barren lands and deserts,
Vast seas, clean and pristine lakes,
Thundering Brooks and waterfalls,
The rivers moving on silently and steadily --
On top of them all I walked,
All alone through sound and light,
So happy and jolly!
Finally, I came out...
...from the depths of drunken state,
Then, in the state of wakefulness and sobriety,
I came to know of...
...the hearer, the seer, the speaker,
Found the essence of every entity and every thing!
After witnessing the light of the truth,
I thanked the lord...
...and fell in front of my master in prostration,
As a humble and grateful servant!
I don't know anything else than this,
I don't want anything else other than this,
I don't have any other beloved except you in the world,
I don't know of any other beloved in the whole universe.
