TO MY TRUEST OF LOVES

At the foothills of the Margalla Hills

On a calm and inspiring April evening

I watch the peaceful crescent sighing

At me and my desperate longing.



After decades love again smiles

At me with a welcoming embrace

After punishing combats with dark nights

I find my heart and soul winning.



She is my fairest and my sweetest

In heart, mind, body and soul

In the years I have lived here        

She is indeed the best of the best.



What praise can I lavish on her

She has done what no one could

Raising me from a sucking quicksand

She has become my entire good.



Hearts like me only live on love

And if true love really comes our way

To save us from our own starvation

God's best flower blossoms our day.



So be it, my truest lady love she is

My heart's sweet repose, my perfect bliss

Let Hira kneel and let Ishtar bless

Her loving palms with their blessed kiss.
