Never Hate For Hate Poem by Mohammad Younus

Never hate for hate
even if it brings sorrow.
Do not close up your heart.
Love begets love

'Ah no, my friend,
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth
your words are old and worn out,
I cannot understand them.'

Hate is like a cyanide drop,
while you taste it you die
But love is strong and abiding.
Let true love wake in your eyes

'Ah no, my friend,
your words are old and worn out,
I cannot understand them'.

The heart blooms from within,
Love is its fragrance
It would not remain in bud
It gushes out and fills the world
Its source is in the eternal rose garden.

'Ah no, my friend,
your words are old and worn out,
I cannot understand them'.

You get me wrong,
I just want to remind you,
What the great prophet says:
To overcome evil with good is good,
to resist evil by evil is evil.
