Poison may aspire for honey and Jackals may cry like sheep, Nay even Abu Lahab’sheart once felt for the Beloved— writes Jaihoon

Poison will at times
Desire to become honey

Rock may wither;
Like water, shiver

Jackals too may cry:
Like sheep, they shy

Even Bu Lahab,
The accursed, once felt:
For Bin Abdulla
His heart melt

This sinner too craved once
With Mustafa’s love soul danced
