Just A Glance Poem by Amir Khusro

Just A Glance

Rating: 5.0


You've taken away my looks, my identity, by just a glance.
You've taken away my looks, my identity, by just a glance.
By making me drink the wine of love-potion,
You've intoxicated me by just a glance;
My fair, delicate wrists with green bangles in them,
Have been held tightly by you with just a glance.
I give my life to you, Oh my cloth-dyer,
You've dyed me in yourself, by just a glance.
I give my whole life to you Oh, Nijam,
You've made me your bride, by just a glance.
You've taken away my looks, my identity, by just a glance.

Wow! So passionate! The repetition of three words is so effective to express the feeling of getting lost in love!

Lovely poem. Reminded me of Kabir's poetry. We have a rich heritage of middle age spiritual poetry in India.
