Sadiqullah Khan - At Stake

You have asked for the last word
Judgment thou sought
From whose chest
You pull out the last arrow
Holding the flood of blood

In vain thy cries who hold truth
"I am the truth"
What ever you might say

Burn me not in the aloes of love
The aroma intoxicates
The vicinity

This whole being then broke itself
At stake was the victory of love
