A Call to Allah
King like no other,
With a throne like no other.
Kinder than the kindest mother:
Such is Allah.
Brighter than the moon
Or than the sun at noon.
Clearer than the stars in June:
Such is Allah.
His place is the heart
Of the devout or the smart.
And the dearest thing to people of art
Is Allah!
That’s the God I adore,
I keep knocking at His door.
None deserves love any more
Than Allah.
Everything goes.
All things fade,
Even the best rose
Or the finest jade…
But not Allah.
Mountains know His Might.
Thunder breaks into praise.
Who do birds remember in their flight?
Who do sheep remember as they graze?
None but Allah!
Words won’t say it all.
Some feelings are never said.
If you happen to hear His Call,
Do hearken before you’re dead.
It’s better to be with Allah.
Lies
They tell me
There's the moon and the stars
And the skies and nothing beyond the skies.
Lies!
There's God beyond the skies,
I tell you.
When that woman gave birth
To her little son
She didn't feel that the Earth
Travels around the sun.
It's all one to the tellers of lies
Who believe the Earth and the skies
Were not made by the One
Who never behaves out of fun,
But were made by chance
Like the meeting of a girl and a boy
Who came to dance.
Lies!
They call themselves wise
But would they tell me why
A girl doesn't look like a guy
Nor does sunset look like sunrise
Nor do I look like my siblings?
Would they please tell me
Who made the soul that makes the flute weep?
Who made the bird's twitter
Different from the bleat of sheep?
Would they be bitter
If I asked why
A vulture flies high in the sky
Whereas a peacock won't go that far?
