It Is On This Blessed Day Poem by Mohammad Younus

It is on this blessed day
That an angel like son was born
To Qureishi family at Saraf Kadal
The sun appeared on the horizon
Swam across the blue mountains
To shine as well on my home every day

The sun climbed the blue mountains
Showered its brilliance on the valley, and...
...on the Dal and the Wular lakes
To smile on Qureishi and Kouls every day

The singing birds played their music
In bushes and on mighty boughs of trees
To reverberate atmosphere with sweet melodies

It is as if the rain of mercy from high heavens
Let us pay gratitude to our merciful lord
And celebrate Iqbal's Birthday today

I join his parents, and all his near and dear.
...in wishing him happy returns of the day
A Blessed Birthday Today! Happy Birthday To you!
