Soon I’ll be home
Contented and warm
Though the rain keep pouring on
I keep walking on
As my mind looks on
To the comfort of the home
And not being alone
Dinner is ready
Though hunger filled me
I did not worry
As I know soon I’ll be
Filled and happy
But say the hunger persists
As food becomes diminished
Will I still be pleased?
Or I’ll go crazy and foolish?
Or say the home is gone
And I am suddenly alone
Because of them moron
Who took all I’ve ever own
I think I’ll go crazy
Cause hunger is not a friendly buddy
When you’re deprived of necessity
Nor is solitary
When you've lost all in a jiffy
I claim myself to be a believer
But did I ever consider
Him telling ME to ponder
His words in the Book of Wonder;
“..Who fed them against hunger
And made them safe from fear.” (106:4)
So I’d be a worshiper
Of the Lord, the Bestower
Why I talk about hunger?
Well maybe I just love to eat burger
Or rather, I have a mind-boggler;
“Where are we now because of hunger?”
“Are we okay when we leave other people to suffer?”
Oh dear brothers and sisters
Let’s contain our hunger
For wealth and power
And dunya rather
Cause when we cause others to suffer
What is our excuse to escape hellfire?
Let’s call ourselves to rise
Cause I myself tend to close my eyes
But we’ll be questioned for these eyes
Them witnesses to their sacrifice
For the ultimate paradise
When we just stand by the sides?
I don't mean to make you bored,
So I’ll leave you with a note,
“Alone I am not
Fear and worry I do not
Be happier I cannot
Cause when I have my dear God
All, I have got.”
What say you ya ukhti wa akhi,
Let’s not divert off this journey?
p/s : Let's keep ourselves reminded shall we? Help me and we'll help each other out insyaAllah :)
