wall of difference
The lover treads a lonely track
Seeking the beloved on a thorny path
Blow after blow from serrated arrows to the heart
The mendicants at the infirmary of the lovelorn are clueless
Unrequited remains most of the wishes of the lover
Wounds and abrasions seem to be without reason
This mad quest of the lover few understand and fewer speak about
A taboo it is considered in this world full of businessmen
How much more pain can the lover bear
No one, not even the beloved understands
The murshid asks me to quit anger
and stop fretting over painful memories
My fakir soothed my aching heart and
wiped the hot tears streaking down my chin
Now at least realize what is real and what is unreal, Said he
Remove this wall of difference between you and me!
