THE LOST SANCTUARY

Posted by Mishaikh on October 25, 2015

Following poem is the gift given to me by a friend of mine in whom I seek a granddaughter, a daughter, a sister, above all a friend.  She has tried to express some feelings, and In my opinion she has made her feelings the feelings of every girl.

Thanks my friend for the gift. (Every good peice of writing is a gift for me and I am blogging it with your permission. God bless you always).

O Allah! My ship is wrecked, I am helpless!!
Where should I dock?
All the crew are lost, and the provisions ran out

Find no place, where should I go?
No sign of existence of island around
no ship, either

There is no place where I can walk?
I've lost my compass neither can find direction
the only direction I know, is back to you

To You, I always seek...
Where's my lost sanctuary?
Where is the one who is made for me?

 

O Allah, I'm weary
Please guide me...
Please show me...

    Thanks Mishaikh for explanation.

    Tanhaee is Persian meaning LONELINESS.

    Thanks seeker for liking. Attributions go to the poetess.

    Thanks Saba. Answer to your confusion lies here in this stanza:

    To You, I always seek...

    Where's my lost sanctuary?

    Where is the one who is made for me?

    Besides there do exist 'feelings for love' but in between the line.

    The gist of the poem is LONELINESS. (Tanhaee, I hope it is Farsi).

    Allah taala bola, ap jao, main madad karega. Insan Jannah chayei. Allah dega, lakin hum log acha kam zarur karega. We straighten our intentions and Allah will help us.

    To You, I always seek...
    Where's my lost sanctuary?
    Where is the one who is made for me?
