Rehman Baba in translation

Posted: Jan 15, 2008 Tue 10:45 pm     Views: 326    Interacts: 1

Why I'm not dying,
Of the sorrow of seperation,
Why I'm not dying,
Of this mourning intense.
Why I'm not dying,
Of the cruelty of this age,
Which snatches a lover from the lover.
Why I'm not dying of witnessing these mornings,
Which laughs at my sobs every rising day.
Why I'm not dying without my lover,
For tis a death, not to stare in the lover's eyes,
Why I'm not dying to see these unfaithful drops of dew,
That leave the flower upon seeing a slight warmth,
Why I'm not dying of this deadly miserable life,
Which I'm carrying with myself,O'Rehman from so long.
