Tonight, as before.. I run to Thee

Amid Life’s submerge, I take refugee in Thee

I stand at the door of  Thou Mercy

In quest for Thou Munificence

Thou Divine Benevolence here I come to seek

I raise my hand and tilt my head earnestly

Over the shades of materialism incubating my heart

Taking over the purity which.. herein I beseech You to reinstate

I come to Thee and seek Thou Connection,

The whole universe is void and sure squally

Never did I believe such abyss would contain me,

If not embraced by Thou Rahamat

Invited by Your Divinity

I come to Thee

Called upon by intriguing need for the Link,

I come to Thee

I appeal to You

Pleading for Your Guidance

Hoping for Your Divine illumination

Without which I roam endlessly seeking direction

Unless blessed by Thou blissful insight

Thou Will, Power… Thou Wisdom

For a sign to the Straight Path I shall continue the search

Thou Art the Lone Light illuminating my stalk

Thou Art the Cloak of warmth shielding me

Me.. Thy poor Worshiper

I come to Thee

Implore for Thy Light

A sky-lit Life is dark

But for light offered by Thou Blessings

An inert heart is that,

Which is deprived of Thy Love

A sightless eye is that,

Which didn’t shed a tear of repentance before Thee

I come to Thee

Again I come to Thee

And forever I shall appeal to Thee

A soul shredded by an incessant need for Thee
