I Met A Girl
In a quaint little town, there lived a boy named Muhaazim who possessed a gift that set him apart from his peers - the ability to weave melodies with words and sing them with such passion that it touched the depths of one's soul. From a very young age, Muhaazim found solace in writing songs, pouring his heart out into each lyric as if it were a piece of his very being. However, Muhaazim belonged to a family where marriages were decided at an early age to ensure the children did not stray from the path chosen for them.

Despite this tradition, Muhaazim dared to dream of his future partner, envisioning her beauty and grace in his mind's eye. At the tender age of 18, he began composing songs dedicated to this imaginary muse, describing her dress, face, skin tone, and most importantly - her heart. Each song was a love letter penned by his soul, revealing his deepest desires and emotions while keeping them hidden from prying eyes.

As time passed by, the moment arrived when he finally met his intended partner. However, to Muhaazim's dismay, the girl standing before him bore no resemblance to the one he had envisioned and immortalized in his songs. Their conversation lacked any spark or connection as if fate had played a cruel joke on him. In the end, the girl rejected Muhaazim for marriage despite her family's disapproval. Heartbroken and shattered beyond repair, Muhaazim spent days drowning in sorrow and tears until he made a fateful decision - to end his own life. His family grieved for their beloved son but urged him to move on from this tragedy. With heavy hearts, they laid Muhaazim to rest but vowed never to forget his love for music and unfulfilled dreams. Years later, inspired by their son's unwavering love for music and romance that transcended death itself; they decided to release all the songs he had written in secret.

A renowned music composer was tasked with bringing these heartfelt melodies back into the world under Muhaazim's name. The songs took on a life of their own as people fell in love with the poignant lyrics and haunting voice without realizing they were mourning an artist long gone. Amongst these fans was Rutaba - a young girl battling cancer who found solace in Muhaazim's timeless tunes. Driven by an inexplicable connection to this mysterious singer who captured her heart with every note; Rutaba embarked on a journey across lands until she discovered Muhaazim's abandoned apartment filled with forgotten memories. As she listened to his unreleased songs and realized she bore an uncanny resemblance to the girl described within them; Rutaba felt both joyous yet melancholic at this bittersweet revelation.

Determined to honor their destined connection even beyond death; Rutaba adorned herself like the girl of Muhaazim's dreams before visiting his grave amidst blooming flowers that mirrored those mentioned in his songs. As she sang their love story beneath autumn skies filled with blossoms dancing around them; an ethereal presence materialized before her eyes - none other than Muhaazim himself embodying nature’s beauty through petals transformed into human form. Their souls united through music as they danced amidst swirling leaves until fate intervened once more - shattering their ephemeral union with stormy winds that dispersed floral remnants of lost love into oblivion. Heartbroken yet grateful for experiencing such unearthly devotion; Rutaba carried these flowers back home where they flourished anew within Muhaazims' apartment symbolizing eternal affection preserved through time immemorial.

In memory of their fleeting encounter bound by destiny; Rutaba composed one final song encapsulating their intertwined destinies which she entrusted unto another kindred spirit willing to share their tale come what may – forever etching March 12th 1988 as both date of reckoning & remembrance upon which her voice soared towards heavens above embracing eternity alongside beloved departed soulmate awaiting reunion among stars shining bright like diamonds forevermore…


White petals of love, our romance unfurled

In this dance of souls in the autumn world

Forever intertwined in love's embrace

Dancing together, covered in grace...
