Alamgir’s Letter

To one of his sons who used to pray for the father’s death. Do you know that to punish and reward has been from old the business of the Lord?

He has heard many anguishing laments from this benighted planet’s residents,

But did a cry escape His lips? Oh no. Like Shabbir He has seen streams of blood flow.

While Jacob wept, He looked on unimpressed; and by Job’s wailing He was not distressed.

Do not think that you ever can ensnare that seasoned Hunter with your foolish prayer.
