Dreams and Disappointments

All humans dream and aim high

Babies and grownups all alike

Careful though they need to be

Dreams cannot all be fulfilled

Even of those who are self-willed

For ultimately humans have limitations

God too has his own plans

However, the fact cannot be denied

It hurts a lot when dreams are annihilated

Jape of life is what it seems

Keek of reality beyond the dreams

Lost and hopeless is what you feel

Mourning looks like your only deal

Not to mention the criticism

Or the hearts you know you have broken

Parents and loved ones feel sorry for you

Quietly try to console you

Ruptured is your heart, however, too badly

Sadness enshrouds, you get so lonely

Tasks of life seem so irking

Up, however, you need to rise

Verily regret will benefit you in no wise

Well, life is never without disappointments

X-dreams thus need to be left behind

You just need to have faith in God

Zilch will then be your suffering over a lost cause

Pleas wrapped in confession

You can never count the bounties of Your Lord

For He is the greatest of all

And can give you all you want

Even that which you have never asked

In spite of our countless sins

He is always merciful to us

Never forsakes us

Doesn’t hate us

Though we are such ungrateful beings

O Lord we love you

O Lord we beg you

To guide us to the straight path

Make us thankful

Forgive all of our sins

And never be angry with us

For if You will to leave us

Without doubt you don’t need us

We will be doomed to hell

Which is the worst abode of all

O Allah we thank You so much

And are very grateful to You

We love You with all we can

So please listen to our plea

Verily You alone are the best of listeners

Gratitude

The blessings of my Lord are countless

Yet in thanking Him I become so listless

Such a sinful being I am

Feel like a complete sham

What is there that my Lord hasn't given me?

Even the things He withheld from me

He kept them away because He loves me

He is the Great Lord who knows what’s best for me

My lord, I thank You

I thank You with all my heart

My soul is Yours

It bows before You

Because that’s its duty

That’s what You ordered it to do

My lord forgive my sins

Please O Lord love me

I know You do

But I am afraid too

I am such a damn fool

Full of pride, in spite of my utter frailness

My Lord I love You with all I can

And I beseech You to love me

And those whose love You have blessed me with

You have in Your power all

And need the help of no one

Your blessings are countless

You are without doubt the most merciful of all

None of the goods I have are my own earning

You are the one who has blessed me with them

For I have no power over any thing

I take You and You alone as the disposer of my affairs

And I know You will never let me down

As long as I hold tight Your rope

My Lord keep blessing me

And make me of Your grateful, pious beings

Who are as free from pomp and pride

As a pure, new born child 

Human soul and this world

Why is it so, that whenever you contemplate at this world,

It seems so awkward and unfamiliar?

That’s because your soul wasn’t born here

Who to Love?

Love is blind

Something intangible for the mind

It is a drug

Stings the heart like a bug

Both medicinal and addicting, it depends

Relieves the most agonizing of pains

But if once having tasted it you are deprived of it

There will be nothing left but disdain

Makes life beautiful

Unless it becomes a trial

Once you are tested through your loved ones

All your patience would soon come to an end

Unless you have a heart identical to Abraham

Which is something you can only dream of

Falling in love with God is hard

But there’s a hundred percent guarantee it’s the safest of all

Mental and spiritual effort is involved

However once you succeed the reward will be most splendid

Surely you will fall in love with humans

It’s something you can neither escape nor deny

All you can do is pray to God to catch you

And put you in to the lap of the one who won’t love you with all his heart

Instead his heart is home to God himself

And there you can reside as his neighbour

What an awesome privilege you would then have been granted

Your life will become blissful

Nevertheless your true future successful

My prayer (haiku)

O lord love those whom I love

Purify those whom I despise

Make me loved by all but never despised

When someone loves you (haiku)

When someone who loves God loves you

Consider yourself the luckiest person in the whole wide world

As you have been allowed to reside in that persons heart, as God’s neighbour! 

Facing the Future

Growing up and maturing

Getting ready to face tomorrow.

It's not something we can choose

Don't turn back, there is just no use.

Whining; bawling are things of the past

It is time to nail your colours to the mast.

Because, that's the only thing you have

To keep you strong from the inside.

You are all alone, at the end of the day

Despite having  friends and family.

They make life beautiful and livable

Yes, there isn't a shred of doubt about that.

However, you have your own soul

Counted hours and will have a solitary grave.

No mortal is responsible for your plight

No one that you can trust with your life.

It's about time, that you got up

And turned your face towards victory.

Find your own path and have no regrets

Bear no worries as your heart will lead the way.
