Rejoicing at a foe's death

Someone had brought information to Nushirvan the just, that an enemy of his had been removed from this world by God the Most-High. 
He asked: 'Have you heard anything about His intending to spare me?' 

There is no occasion for our rejoicing at a foe's death 
Because our own life will also not last forever. 
                                                               'Sheikh Sa'di'


ਦੁਸ਼ਮਨ ਮਰੇ ਤੇ ਖੁਸ਼ ਨਾ ਹੋਈਏ 
ਸਜਨਾਂ ਵੀ ਮਰ ਜਾਨਾ 
Dushman Mare te khush na hoiye
Sajnaa vee mar jaana
