Magic

Labeeqa baneen 2003 (Okara, Pakistan)



Magic is a whisper in the night
A secret spell cast just right
It sparkles in the eyes of a child
And makes the heart of the brave run wild

It dances on the tips of fingers
And turns ordinary things into wondrous figures
It conjures dreams and visions bold
And tells tales of a world untold

With a wave of a wand and a flick of a wrist
The impossible becomes possible with a twist
The ordinary becomes extraordinary
And reality seems a little less ordinary

It lives in the pages of ancient books
And hides in the corners of forgotten nooks
It enchants the mind and soothes the soul
And makes the broken heart feel whole

Magic is a world of endless possibility
A place where the imagination can roam free
It fills the heart with wonder and delight
And turns the darkest night into light.
