Crazy Love - by Hend Bindari
See I have this love for a man,
And to tell u the truth, I've never met him
Yet my heart beats for a sight of him.
It's a strange feeling because I've never even heard him
But I know that just a sound of his footsteps will have me shaking
Not because of my fear of him, but because of my love for him
It's just that people have been telling me stories of him
So I think that's where I base my love for him
You're probably thinking I'm crazy, right?
But crazy doesn't even cut it
This love is like borderline insanity
It's making me believe people can defy gravity
Travel 800 miles in 1 night, when he didn't even have that kind of technology
He climbed seven heavens
Had one as his weapon
His silence was his eloquence
His quietness spoke gems
So I'm thinking this man was a man of reality
He spoke words of truth and honesty
Like an arsonist ignites, he spread light through dark localities
Brought kindness to brutality
Brought justice to prisoners and squashed slavery
This man of mercy was a mercy to humanity
And the vessel of inner beauty
He taught me to love and how to love,
When he said, "my eyes do sleep, but my heart never does"
When others before him would say nafsi, nafsi
He would say, ummati, ummati
And why can't people understand
That desert sand misses this man
More than it does rain
That a tree wept from pain
When it missed just the touch of his hand
So how can I not love this man?
How can I not long for a sight of this man?
How can my mind not dream of this man?
How can my soul not long to be connected with this man?
How can my eyes not tear for this man?
I love you Rasoolullah (SAW) , I really do
