A Vow Divine

A silhouette of a stranger creeping on my wall

Is it you .. death angel ? is it you .. my death call ?

Hiding under layers, I cover my face

I’m still young, I thought .. I had many more days ?!


What about the mistakes ? what about every bad deed ?

The people I hurt .. The Quraan I want to read ?

The charity I forgot to give .. The prayers un-sincere ?

I peek through the blankets, but the vision unclear


Am I leaving now ? Allah, please ?

I’m sorry I was awful .. This moment I seize

Allah, it’s me .. that slave again

I crossed Your borders .. I did indeed sin

It’s me with the red, it’s me with the black

It’s the same old me, the energy I lack

To stand at Your door ..

To apologize once more ..

My tears for You .. of fear, they pour

My forehead for You .. on the rug, on the floor


You saw the worst there is of me

You saw every scene .. even the one by the sea

You were there during the dark .. You witnessed during the light

How did I miss out on Your Power .. Your Might ?

Unveil Allah the blur in my sight

Purify my soul .. my heart turn white

Guide me Allah .. to The Only Path .. right


Leave me not alone .. in this savage race

I don’t want to be left out when they see Your exalted Face

When they drink of the rivers, the milk and wine

When they meet you every Friday and their faces shine

The ‘Mu’mins’ Allah – I renew a vow Divine
