Yes, that loss of a loved one
Or a heartbreak or misfortune,
Where you just accepted the Decree
Saying, Inna lillaahi wa inna ilaihi raji’oon.
Yes, you stood in front of the mirror
Pleading yourself to stay calm,
When anger took over you
And someone you were about to harm.
Yes, it always happens with you
Your plans fail, everything goes wrong,
And you look above at HIM
Asking for patience and to stay strong.
Yes, you love that music and those lyrics
Which seem to soothe your mind,
And of a better remedy you are aware but to resist this, difficult you find.
Yes, when all these appear too good
It seems very hard to sacrifice,
But what is a greater loss than
Not having Allah by your side.
Ya Saabiroon, for you there is the reward,
Don’t lose it for this temporary place,
Bear a little, ‘O’ you who are patient,
Bear a little more, just a little more remains.’
