I Am Now Blessed Poem by Mohammad Younus

After submitting to God's will, I have changed;
The old smile over my paled face has returned;
And in my eyes the bitter tears of pathos...
...have now stopped;
I really have changed!
The ghost of terror I have away chased
My thoughts, manners, speech, and actions...
... have sweetened;
And I feel the beauty
...that my eyes had never before reached!
I will go back to the garden of eternity...
...from where I was expelled;
For I did not forget the word that...
...God spoke to me on the Day of Alast,
And with each kiss of divine music...
...I swell with enormous ecstasy;
I am not a rebel servant who tells his master:
Sir, you take your way; I will take mine!
The sounding word does not let me sever...
...from divine presence and remembrance!
Every musical melodious kiss makes me forget...
...the shattered years of separation from...
...the divine presence;
O' please come on, My beloved! ...
...Put your arms around my neck...
...and hold me fast to your musical chest,
...to make me one of Your nearest friends best;
From you have I risen and...
...aflame in your love am I now blazing,
Just a bit of your light give me...
...that my nights change to daytime;
Without your flashes of light...
I'll never bloom, I will wither;
Just I implore you to give me...
...sharp sight and clear vision...
...such that I could notice you in me and...
...in the cosmos around;
Then, for sure, I won't fade and wither...
...I'll be: everlasting and evergreen!
The hidden reality will dawn upon me:
I'm immortal among the living!
In the shade of the Truth I'm standing!
In the truth do I take refuge!
I'mnt stranger or other to the Truth!
The Truth bestowed His Truth upon me!
Thus, I shine with the aura of the Truth;
In Thanksgiving I say:
'I am the Truth! I am the Truth! '
