Philosophy Poem by Prof Niamat Ali Murtazai

Grey haired, wrinkled face, but always with grace
In each nook and corner we can it trace.
Without it poetry is versifying
And oratory but just like crows' cawing.
Without it religions' edifice collapses
Without it life seems a game of losses.
Philosopher's stone can turn base ore to rich gold
It means Philosophy possesses the best mould.
Without it countries shrink to small cities
Without it springs remain but pities.
Love of wisdom isn't a meager thought
This one thought can change a nation's whole lot.
Wisdom is difference between man and beast
It turns fodder into a delicious feast.
Philosophy fills meanings into this vast world
Without which all galaxies are absurd.
It provides light for eyes and mind
It helps us see forward as well as behind.
O Murtazai, philosophy is soul's soul
Unlimited and unchecked it plays its role.
