The Pakistani Spectator

The world seems so beautiful

As I look out of this window, lying on my bed

I try to imagine how fast the time passed,

Burnt like a small candle so fast.

I remember the beautiful dawn;

Though full of fog and mist,

Yet the day was golden and warm,

I enjoyed it at my best.

But still I think I missed so much,

Though I never set myself to rest.

It’s a pity I cannot go out now__

The world outside is dark,

The night fell so sudden,

But it had to fall somehow.

I think I must go to sleep now,

An everlasting day is ahead,

Someone has closed the window,

And I lay on my bed.
