Those who have mastered life’s meaning shall know no pain

Those who have mastered life’s meaning shall know no pain,
The hearts that feel Allah’s truth will never die in vain.

Flesh is mortal, not the soul; the dead can’t return.
Only the body dies, souls can never be slain.

Hearts may take a hundred roads to find life’s essence;
Unless one has Allah’s grace one has nothing to gain.

Take care, don’t break the loved one’s heart, it’s made of glass;
Once broken, you can’t put it together again.

Allah created the world for the Prophet’s friendship;
Those who come into this world go, they can’t remain.
