By Maya Green
They chase all of the ‘dunya’
But of the ‘akhirah’ they wilfully sell
O, what a grotesque bargain, indeed
Where an eternity, in the laps of Paradise
Is exchanged for a fleeting moment
Of mere, and empty fantasy
Gold and faeces, are interchangeable
But not your soul, nor your bejewelled Light
This ‘dunya’ is all but just a blink!
So beware, the pull of the ‘dunya’
If of your precious soul — is to be saved
Don’t be blinded, in any sorts of manner
