THE MAGIC WHITE CARPET

 

THE MAGIC WHITE CARPET

Stupefied the human heart's desire,
To escape from the boundary pair,
Burning issues and scars of the past,
Bitter fights, wrangles, spats, anger, (1)

Encountered a beast, ferocious eyes,
Fangs, cruel smiles follow fearfully,
A human runs at breakneck speed,
Climbs to the mountain cliff, finds (2)

No quarrels, animosity, and hatred,
Peaceful place, the wind blows, a relief,
Found the safest place, look below,
Disappeared a bad dream sunrises, (3)

Bright blue sky instilling hope, a lot,
Miraculously sensed nature appeal,
The flying carpet, noticed, amazed,
Contemplate a far-off place, travel, (4)

Believing that paradise exists, invite,
Peace and harmony, love captivate,
Polite, gentle humans, helpful, roam,
Beautiful orchard and sweet home, (5)

Pervading fragrance hazy and petal,
Reverberate songs, music, melodies,
Stolen the identity or mortal feeling,
Forgotten gold and silver, symphony, (6)

Where death fails to touch astonish,
The mirror carries no image puzzles,
Absent thunderstorm flood draught,
No sunset or night, light translucent, (7)

A person got tired, sat mesmerized,
The magic white carpet, the dream,
Jump from the cliff, and death waits,
He returned to the world reluctantly. (viii)
