Nargas-Bhai Vir Singh English

NARGASNARGASEternity now is mine!My eyes have been looking along the way my lovehas gone from me.In the name of Allah, I swear,I had but one glimpse of him!He came this way, that way he went,I saw him, and I lost him.He was but now before my eyes.He has gone, and hath not yet returned.It was but one glance, one glance that made me soselfless.It was one glance that made me for ever pale andwhite.And on and on for ever, I look for him!He made me death pale, white and ill;He took my sleep .md rest away.o Allah! I had but one glimpse of him!My eyes are as cups held in a beggar's hands, waitingstill to be filled with love.He came this way, that way he went!I saw him and I lost him.He was but now before my eyes.He has gone, my love has gone that way!He has gone, and hath not yet returned!{ocraTFr."C?"(VaT -e- (]TO, iJoT. 97)Page 21www.sikhbookclub.com
