Stars

I wonder though the trivialities of life,

I wonder with neither arrogance nor pride

But rather with the dampened curiosity of autumn leaves
That stick to my shoe with the impeding hope of winter snow

That these cheeks will flush red again and that the numbing
Of these gentle hands will stir this soul to life
I wonder at the stars their splendour

That perhaps through darkness I shall shine

When the sun and loving care hath retired

And the world will sleep sublime

That when thy eyes have closed

I shall my beauty find

"(God) is the One Who has set out for you the stars, that you may guide yourselves by them through the darkness of the land and of the sea. We have detailed the signs for people who know."

Surah 6 Verse 97
