Sadiqullah Khan - *My Refuge

Alone in the illusions
Flowers shall not tell
Nor the colors of rainbow
The mirage of the desert
The moon of the fourteen
Gone blind and the sun
The thirst that made oasis
The drought stricken earth
Like my heart for the drop
Last from the old wine

From the void as I saw
In nothingness thou exist
From nothingness to being
The being I adore as thou say
I wonder to discover myself
As thou manifest in many forms
The mystery but a tiny part

Still holding on to the aroma
That thou left on my soul
The life that thou enliven
The sensuous lips thine
When parted slowly in red
The voluptuous contours alluring
Thou art my refuge
Thou art my aesthetics
