Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya-Parts1-2

Part two
No sign was left of their arrogant dwellers,
Not to speak of signs, not even a bone survived.
Wisdom is that a man should live in fear,
Or else, calamity after calamity would come upon him.
To be dead is surely better,
Than to live a life of sin and wickedness.
Come and tread the path of justice;
Would prejudice stop you from repentance?
Believe me, what I say is true and just;
It is no empty boast, nor a senseless tale.
I reflected deeply over every religion,
And listened carefully to the argument of every one.
I studied the scriptures of all religions,
And heard all their scholars.
I devoted myself to this endeavour from my early years,
And adopted it as my sole occupation.
