After Death Comes New Life! Poem by Mohammad Younus

After death comes New life!
Friends! When I die...
...no one should weep for me;
Write in the name of God:
New life begins after death!
For everything begins that way;
After the winter season is over...
...the dead trees come back to life!
Our Lord is the Most Merciful...
...the Most Compassionate!
He does not hold His mercy from his people;
With His mercy, I'll shed off this worn out body;
With His mercy, I shall not have to experience...
...the torturous agonies of dying;
On the wings of the Gentle Breeze...
...coming from my Merciful God...
I pray that God may call me back
Such that He is pleased with me...
...and I am pleased with him;
There is the paradise called Eden with God;
Reserved for such of his lovers as are...
...
the most beloved to Him;
For those who love His children...
...and all His creation;
Whose souls have been
specially given to drink the wine of love;
They are the closest to God whom He...
...assembles in his garden of mercy...
...with the sages and saints...
...and the companions of the prophet of God;
Nothing more than this do I want...
...from the merciful and loving God!
