The Cycles of Day & Night

 

From time immemorial people have come here and gone

In this world of ours, there is always something going on

 

Births and deaths, weddings and burials everyday

Taking place sometimes near to us, sometimes far away

 

Fires, earthquakes, mudslides, blizzards and the tsunamis

No one can stop these even with the strongest armies

 

We all have happy and sad days, wealth and poverty, health and sickness

They all come to each of us whether you are a professional or in business

 

Take your happy days and days of power & wealth with a grain of salt

Few sunrises later you may be down in the dumps, without any of your fault

 

Allah says in Quran- e-majeed,” Tilkal Ayyamo Nudaveloha bainan naas “

No one can escape their destiny,  try hard as you may, to say ”Pass”

 

Sabar and shukar in calamities, what our awliyahs have taught

Allah’s wrath will increase if you cry , complain and stay distraught

 

In calamities like these you will find a lot of comfort and himmat

In Maola Burhanuddin’s taweez and doas, may he live healthy ta qiyamat
