Seekers who dispassionately leave the shrine of the Beloved, abandon their heartbeat behind. Mujeeb Jaihoon’s tribute to those halfhearted pilgrims.
The heart returned:
Its Beat abandoned
The nightingale flew:
Its Rose remained distant
The garden plundered:
Its River separated afar
The book closed:
Its Letters faded
The cup broke:
Its Wine spilled
The Shell cried:
Its Pearl robbed
The Eyes wept:
Light snatched
The Journey concluded:
Behold! Destination lay behind
