Dead or Fallen

 All that’s dead or fallen, is at peace,
It feels not the gaze of the living,
Their breath doesn't fan its face,
In death there’s no partnership,
In death, the mind is silent.

What do I really know of death?
People crying, loudly, softly, some even in vain,
How do I mourn the drifting, the going away,
Have I not every so often wished it for myself…

The Song of the Sufi Masroof
