I Have Made Up My Mind Poem by Mohammad Younus

In the orchard of my heart sings a nightingale,
The nightingale whose songs take me to the paradise...
and take me into the light from darkness...
and to the cave in the mountain of light:
'Hello fabulous! ' my honour to that holy cave,
luminous with golden light, resonating with sweet melodies,
When Adam and Eve spotted the fruit on the forbidden tree,
They said, ' Shall we taste it or not? '
If I had known the consequences, I wouldn't have come near to it
Thank goodness! I have sought forgiveness from my lord

'Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves,
and if You do not forgive us and have mercy upon us,
we will surely be among the losers'

My lord has forgiven me for sinning against my own self
And sent me to the world, and start a new living,
O simple beginnings of myself.
There is a nightingale who sings in me through my thoughts,
I sing back with him to the beginning of my life
There is a nightingale flying out of the cage of my breast;
It's chirping now at the edge of dawn on the boughs of the trees
It constantly calls out to me from behind the thick foliage:
'You have to step into life, know your existence, you must hurry'
Good news! I am leaving, I am leaving for my home:
I have made up my mind, nobody must stop me.
