104 A HYMN

104  A HYMN

O You who loves a broken heart
I seek your pity for I’m not smart

A king who is always seeking more power
When faced with yours, he can only cower

He is always looking for gems and gold
But I your face just want to behold

The sheik is always railing the meek
But I your mercy do so much seek

And I who is only a lump of clay
For pity and mercy I beg and pray

                      PERSIAN POEM
                              NAAT

Aey too keh hast her dil e mehzoon saraay too
Aawurda am saraay diger az baraay too

Khaaja ba takht banda e tashweesh e mulk o maal
Ber khaak rashk e khusrav e douraan gada e too

Aan ja qaseeda khaani e lazzaat e seem o zar
Een ja faqat hadees e nishaat e liqa e too

Aatishfishaan zay qehr o malaamat zabaan e shaikh
Az ashk tar zay dard e ghareebaan rida e too

Baayad keh zaalimaan e jahaan ra sada kunad
Roozay ba soo e adl o inaayat sada e too
