Who m I..?????

Not the light of any one's eyes,

Nor the solace for any one's heart

of no use to anyone,

I am that one fistful of dust...

I am not the song infusing life,

why would anyone want to hear me

I am the sound of separation,

I am the wail of much distress...

my complexion and beauty is ravaged,

my beloved is parted from me

the garden that got ruined in autumn,

I am the crop of its spring...

I am neither anyone's friend,

nor am I anyone's rival

the one that is ruined,

I am that fate the one that is destroyed, that land...

why should anyone come to sing a requiem

why should anyone come to offer four flowers

why should anyone come to light a candle

I am the tomb of that destitution...
