THERE WILL I MEET MYSELF

SYED RAFID KABIR

Where all light streams into one place,

Where all love heals itself,

Where no one dare hide their face,

There will I meet myself.

 

Where the stars shine elegantly

All the eventide long,

Where all the suns will be,

There will I belong.

 

Where lost dreams wander back once again,

Shining with a sparkling glow,

Where there shall be no pain,

There shall I go.

 

Where all happiness swirls together

Along with a foam of melancholy,

Where all people fearlessly gather,

There will I be.

 

Where there be an eternal night,

With its sky crafted with gravel,

Where there is no lack of light,

There shall I travel.

 

Where there is no war,

And Death will smile upon Life itself,

Where stars are as beautiful as they are,

There will I meet myself.
