“My soul drank of Your wine
And I became the sacred sinner
I am today.
When I sinned against you,
again and then again,
You looked the other way
O Beloved.
My head did not bow five times a day;
But the moment it did,
You turned Your gaze
towards me
As though I’d never raised my head….”

This poem was written at the beginning of the Ramadhan Month. Many would know why…..
Stalking Dawn 
I’m not sure how it is that I’ve completely missed your work, but I’m glad I’ve found it now. This is a beautiful, moving piece.
Thank you for your generous remarks; nothing is missed if found … And nothing exists that won’t be found when the book closes.
MashAllah ! Beautiful ! Yes Indeed He is the sweetest 🙂 Kabi usk Ahsaanaat ka shuker naheen ker saktay hum…. Jitna wo hamaray leyay kerta hai kabi soch b nae saktay…. Insaan hain na ghalti kerna adat hai hamari aur wo Khuda hai….Maaf kerna fitrat hai uski,,,,, Love Him….
agar maloom hojae tujhe ke
teri aankh ka ik ashk
hazaar gunah dho dega;
Shayad is zameen per
phir kabhi qehet nah ho…
Beautiful..
Thank You! =)
