The Way I Must Travel On Poem by Mohammad Younus

The way I must travel on,
To escape the snares of this world,
Is to seek within, not afar,
For the light that resides in my soul.

The way I must travel on,
To make my world a place of bliss,
Is to embrace love and compassion,
Letting go of hatred and greed.

The way that can take me,
To that clear ocean,
In which I can see my true face,
Is the path of self-awareness,
Clearing my mind of illusions.

The way that can help me
Learn from Khidr,
The knowledge, wisdom, and secrets divine,
Is the journey of inner discovery,
Guided by faith and patience.

The way that I must traverse,
To return to my state of origin,
Is the surrender to the divine will,
Trusting in the journey's purpose.

I pray to You, my God, to show me that sacred path,
That bridges the bay between life and death,
And brings me from illusion to reality.
