"A PROMISE LIVES WITHIN ME NOW" BY NAYYAR AFAQ
COMMENT UPON THE POEM " A PROMISE LIVES
WITHIN ME NOW " BY NAYYAR AFAQ
This poem seems to be a sad one but it is full of desire
of life to come into the author’s heart .
He is suffering for what happens around him, for the
ugly and miserable real life when he knows that God ,
the creator, made the human beings have a beautiful life,
full of happiness and love with sun rays shine on their face.
No matter how much we cry or smile, we daily feel the holy
Light which spreads its flame all over the Earth Mankind …
In the “sea of dark”, with empty arms but wise mind, he
wants to know how much he has to fight against the
too old night…
Where are the stars ? He wants to know , to change the world….
“O’ lord ! On knees I beg, I bow
A promise lives within me, now ”
It is God’s promise for us to know
that Hope is Light and only Light !
Congratulations, Nayyar !

A PROMIS LIVES WITHIN ME NOW
The more this night gets dark and deep,
The more these eyes have pledged to weep.
Jump turns to fly, crawl grows to leap.
But price of all is never cheap.
I lost my rest, I lost my sleep.
My heart feels like crushed by the heap.
The more I try, more do I cry.
And more I wake, more dreams I take.
For joys to reap – I must should sow.
A promise lives within me now.
As long as eyes are filled with tears.
As long as there are cries and fears.
As long as dreams are killed by spears
As long as life is void of cheers.
Blind are my eyes, deaf are my ears.
For all those gone, forsaken years.
The tears we cost, the smiles we lost.
Unanswered prayers; mine, your or theirs.
Still in my heart, love signs a vow.
A promise lives within me now.
O’ Lord! You made my heart so weak.
My looks seem dull, my words seem meek.
They call me dumb, they call me freak.
Why does luck play just hide and seek.
Please no more tear to roll on cheek.
Please bless me power to fight and speak.
I have no ark, in sea of dark.
How long I fight? Do show me light.
O’ Lord! On knees I beg, I bow.
A promise lives within me now.
(Nayyar Afaq / The Autumn Green)
