When I was young, my father told me the story

Of Suleiman and the Angel of Death

One day, Suleiman was walking with a man when before them

The Angel of Death appeared and stared deep into the man's eyes

And then abruptly left

When the Angel left them, the man turned to Suleiman, concerned

And asked who had just appeared and stared at him so intensely

Suleiman told him it was the Angel of Death

Scared, the man begged Suleiman to send him with the Winds far east to India

Suleiman agreed and instructed the Winds to carry him

Moments later, the Angel of Death reappeared

And a curious Suleiman asked the Angel

"Why did you look so intense and strangely at the man?"

The Angel of Death replied, "I was confused

I had just been instructed to take the man's life in India"
