Humayun(Late Mr. Justice Shah Din) |
O Humayun! your life was full of warmth
Your spark was an assembly-enlightening lamp |
Though your earthly body was slim and weak
Your elegant disposition was bright like a star |
How fearless a heart in this frail body was
A universal flame in this handful of dust was! |
But the intelligent heart was not at all afraid of death
In night’s silence there is nothing except morrow’s affairs! |
The imprudent ones consider death is the end of life
This apparent evening of life is the morning of perpetual life! |
