Oh Masjide Al-Aqsa! ( From my poetry book Voice of Heart) Subhanallazee- Asra be-Abdihee lailam-minal Masjidil-Harame ilal Masjidil-Aqsa. ************ ********* ********* ********* **** Still the sacred words of ‘Subhanallazee- Asra’, Are a living testament to your exalted glory ; Still you revive in the minds of the Faithful , The Truthfulness of the Journey and its story . Still I can smell the fragrance of my Prophet , From the winds touching your walls and roof ; Still your ambiance and the surrounding aura , Speak of his Ascension as a towering proof . What an irony! You are now crying with pain , Under the unholy siege of your barbaric foes ; Sura Bani-Israel is opening with your praise , But the nation of Israel is adding to your woes . Among your believers are those mighty kings , Before whom their people tremble with fear ; Who always pretend to love ‘sharia’and Qu’ran , But to your anguish, they have turned a deaf ear . ******************************************************** Dr.Mustafa Kamal Sherwani Lucknow, India sherwanimk@yahoo +91-9919777909
