Thy wordy silence!

Author: Munaj Gul Muhammad

When the day departs,

Thy happiness deviates.

When the clouds substitute the tears

They thunder and burst forth

But only in your lane

For thou is silent!

When thou speaks, the happiness and laughter echo across the graveyard!

And the grave gets reverberated!

For thou articulated in the cloud.
