2 Urdu couplets and shers with fana

Differs from baqa, which follows fana and allows the soul to reintegrate awakened consciousness into worldly existence. In poetic and spiritual literature,
1 / 2: fana
apne haathon se us ne meri qabr pe

with her own hands she spread flowers
on my graveyard…’twas so thrilling
