The One Who Was and Will Always Be
I wonder when I look above
With a sigh of love
At the starry sky, with tears of joy
When will this life come to an end?
For I can’t wait and I want to see
The ONE who was and will always be
It’s true this life does have a reason
But the world for me is still a prison
So no wonder what I have in here
That void inside will always be
For I can’t wait and I want to see
The ONE who was and will always be
I try to avoid it but I end up sinning
My heart feels heavy and my head starts spinning
If this is the pain I feel in this world
Then how harsh would the hell fire be
The thought of it makes me hate myself
But despair of HIS mercy I’ll never be
For I can’t wait and I want to see
The ONE who was and will always be
So I turn to HIM, put my head on the ground
My lost soul as if suddenly found
His remembrance puts my heart at peace
And brings a happy thought to mind
If this is the satisfaction of this world
How much pleasure one would in the Heaven find?
And then I can’t wait and I want to see
The ONE who was and will always be
That Road That’s Seldom Taken
Alhamdulillah! All Praise be to Allah! I was thinking on some other lines but ended up writing this!
For once let your soul wander
On that road seldom taken
They say there’s magic on it
For those sleeping, oft awaken
It’s famous yet it’s unknown too
Maybe we’re just mistaken
They say it changes faces not
But hearts are surely shaken
People of past, the souls of great
All have that road taken
On it have walked great warriors and Kings…
Alas! It’s now forsaken!
Great mystery though it still does hold
It may seem strange to you and I
They deem it strange, nor dark, nor cold
Those who possess The Inward Eye
Some go there just to find themselves
Some go there for enlightenment
But one thing common in them all
Is they enjoy the time they spend
Some call it the Path to God
Some call it Siraat-e-Mustaqeem
But the thing that brings them in accord
Is that you find it ONLY in THE DEEN!
