| [slm] [Weeks and months are racing one over the other and man remains as a dumb spectator to this passage. 'Where is the time'? is the complaint of most of us. We have no control over the reins of time. And in such a situation, we are losing our creativity making us resort to imitation. We act as if we are happy, whereas we are robbed of the true emotions. The financial institutions and corporate giants foster hyper-spending, artificially creating, not serving, demand of the buyers. The agents of credit cards who promote overspending are playing all sorts of deceitful games to sell their products. The only escape from the worldly worries is the closeness to the teachings of Holy Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. The enemies of faith gained an upper hand because of the believers' detachment from him. They are subjected to all sorts of humiliation and torture due to the same reason. The poet is begging Lord to grant him peace of mind, if not peace in the world.] A Silent wail for Heavenly Love - Jaihoon “Silence is victory”, Said Your Beloved If so, I wail silently For his Love Heavenly Each day flies as a feather lost in the wind Unable to grab it from front or behind Life is losing its real meaning Over the leftovers is it dining No fresh spark is coming from the heart To serve the world is racing every form of art We laugh pretending to be happy, But in truth- We are so sad with no tears to shed Our only dream is to live like humans Alive- Eat only when hungry Smile only when heart is in joy And show love only to those who deserve. They say ‘tis must to struggle for the bread But does it mean that the whole life in it be shred? The goal of this system is to make man spend It sweet-coats the debts seducing others to lend The apostles of Interest do their creed openly preach Never giving a chance for the layman to escape their catch ‘Consume, consume and consume’ They make greed in you fume They steal your time and mind And stab you laughing from behind The air is polluted with emission of smoke But worse are the ‘colorful waves’ to which eyes flock Man is no more than an ‘asset’ in the corporate eyes Like a table or machine, his value over time falls Ah! I don’t point fingers at the Time If any fault, I am to take the blame All these misfortunes fell on us Because from Mustafa we are at distance Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam Had we shown loyalty to Chief of Madina Enemies would not insult us as in Najaf and Basra Bombs and missiles drop on our heads Embargoes and sanctions halt our foods Women are raped, Man are stripped, Children are orphaned Families are shattered… Shh!!! It is not fashion to talk of misery Forbidden is everything except merry Lord! All I ask is for a little calm But not without Your Thought in me storm “Silence is victory”, Said Your Beloved If so, I wail silently For his Love Heavenly The clamor in the world may only get worse But at least within may I find some peace Your Beloved is the ultimate in Love Suffice for me that his footsteps I follow He is my haal and maqaam He is my faqr and Ishq He is my Miraaj and Sidrat He is my Kawthar and Jannat I wail silently For His Love Heavenly. sallallahu ala Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam! http://www.jaihoon.com/egoptics/silentwail.htm |
