Her Character Sketch

Kaleemullah 1998 (Khairpur)

Ode


All praise belongs to the Almighty
Who made her exquisitely beautiful
She is indeed the sign of divine love
Sent from heaven to earth

I don't possess such knowledge
Of language to describe her in words
But everybody around calls her
She is the moon in moonless nights

From feet to head she is intoxicating
She is a medium-sized fair-skinned girl
Slim but prettily graceful in figure
Like the fully grown fragrant flower

With luminous light Brown straight hair
Having a smooth forehead and celestial nose
Big bright bewitching eyes with shadowy eyebrows
Heart-shaped thick lips and fur-like soft rosy cheeks

Her glossy hands with piercing fingers   
Symbolizes the sign  of peace in the warfare
And her long blazing legs are like musical instruments
When steps she takes; creates a rhythm in the air

Her flat neck is like the slop to waterfalls
And arms like feathers to fly high
When she opens them, it seems she wants to hug
The hills, mountains, valleys and lands deeply

Her smile is like lightning in a cloudy weather
And anger is not less than any earthquake
And when she speaks in a polite tone; it seems
Nature itself sings the heart-warming hymns

Most of all I like when she walks in the garden
All the flowers get pale before her beauty
But it's a great honour for jealous flowers
Cause she waters them and loves them the most

Beyond that, she is like the spring in the autumn
Happiness in the sadness, rain in the  desert
Hope for hopelessness and soul to the  soulless body
But to me, she is the peace in my restless life
