Holy Drunkard

Behold, Ghalib, I am drunkard But I didn’t drink in your God’s house Behold, Iqbal, I am drunkard But not disbeliever in where your unholy wine lives Behold, Faraz, I am drunkard but fully conscious In where your God is safe Behold, Wasi, I am drunkard Not in heaven But in the world- The God’s tavern Oh, Ghalib! Behold, I am drunkard In the wine, I live And in me, the wine lives Because we are merged As the almighty One. ©Mahtab Bangalee 5th January, 2025 Chattogram
