Where Was I? Poem by Shuaib Saifi

Neither I was on the earth nor on the sky,
Nor in those buds that are still new;
Nor on the playing waves of the sea,
I was lost Just in the imaginations of you.

I was in your two bright eyes like a star,
Between your lips that are full of romance;
On your pretty cheeks, so rosy that are; -
Thus falling in your love I did commence.

Now the place where to dwell I wait impatiently
Are your arms, and to shield from the sorrows
Your dense and scented hair could be over me;
I wish to spend my all fresh morrows
With you, o my love. I pledge to be loyal and true,
If gone e'er false, be no more for a single moment too.
