The World Is A Playground Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLCMNIOPQI RRSITIUVI| I perceive the world as a playground | A |
| Where dawn and dusk appear in eternal rounds | B |
| In His Universal form is a plaything the throne of Solomon | C |
| The miracles of the Messiah seem so ordinary in my eyes | D |
| Without name I cannot comprehend any form | E |
| Illusionary but is the identity of all objects | F |
| My anguish envelopes the entire desert | G |
| Silently flows the river in front of my floods | H |
| Ask not what separation has done to me | I |
| Just see your poise when I come in front of you | J |
| Truly you say that I am egotistical and proud | K |
| It is the reflection O friend in your limited mirror | L |
| To appreciate the style and charm of conversation | C |
| Just bring in the goblet and wine | M |
| Hatred manifests due to my envious mind | N |
| Thus I say don't take his name in front of me | I |
| Faith stops me while temptations attract | O |
| Inspite of Kaaba behind and church ahead | P |
| I am the Lover yet notorious is my charm | Q |
| Thus Laila calls names to Majnu in front of me | I |
| 'Dies' not one though the union is a delight | R |
| In premonition of the separation night | R |
| Alas this be it the bloody separation wave | S |
| I know not what else is in store ahead of me | I |
| Though the hands don't move the eyes are alive | T |
| Wine and goblet let them stay in front of me | I |
| Says 'Ghalib' | U |
| Conscience is companion and trusted friend | V |
| Don't pass any judgments in front of me | I |
