Adrift in this golden sea,

sand dunes rise, giants of fleeting form.

Memories, like dust devils, dance,

whispering forgotten stories on the wind.


Aching with the thirst for answers,

I wander, a lone nomad beneath the sun.

But here, in this arid expanse,

water hides, a secret, unseen well.


Is it truth I seek, or solace?

Perhaps both, a hidden oasis

to quench the burning desire within.

For in this desert of the mind,

only the heart can truly navigate.



-Rashid Ali Ghazipuri
