Mujeeb Jaihoon’s response to those who enquire about what gifts has the poet brought from the land of Meem.
Gifts and presents
Entice lovers
‘What have you brought us
From the land of Meem-sojourn?’
Replied I,
I have neither antiques
Nor any souvenirs
Rather, with me are bag of gems
Seen which are no Jinn nor Ins
Invaluable than any gifts
Inimitable are they in looks

SubhanAllah!! The sojourn by itself is a gift, a marvel, which is unparalleled. The last two lines are so profound, “Invaluable than any gifts, Inimitable are they in looks”.
