An Alpine Lake
By Uzma Showkat
Oh paradise! Thy beauty, intriguing!
I offer thee the token of my being.
All miseries, thou momentarily seize
I found thou, while the world envies.
I stroll through the meadows
And rest in thy shadows
Swarmed by sweet melodies
I found thou, while the world envies.
I climb thy forests
Breath stuck in my lungs,
No woes, I've no worries.
I found thou, while the world envies.
I hop from rock to rock
How long before the secrets unlock !
Thine the safe & mine countless queries
I found thou, while the world envies.
Thy glaciers, mighty, crystal laden!
I slip, my shoe torn and feet frozen
Blood dripping, I embrace all my injuries
I found thou, while the world envies.
Coz the first view of thy turquoise lake
is worth more than my being at stake
As the wretched meets heaven after his decease,
I found thou, while the world envies.
