No One Else Was Near To Us Poem by Mohammad Younus

No one else was near to us,
On the day of covenant,
No one was witness to our vows,
When you took pledge from me,
That I should take no one as my beloved,
That I should love only you,
That I should not fall in the trap of rivals,
You are He who loves me from eternity,
I am that who never leaves you from eternity,
Oh, I remember my covenant fully,
No way I'll break my covenant with you,
I won't say that vows flow away...
...like ripples on the river,
I won't stay any longer away from loving you,
Even for a moment between the two ripples,
And you, oh my darling, know I'm not lying,
I never take your other in my embrace,
I always remember only you.
