Oh My Lord I Plea!

Syria, Palestine, Iraq, Burma, Srilanka, Afghanistan, Pakistan and the list goes on. The sufferings of the Muslim Ummah knows no bound at the moment. But what's more agonizing is the deafening silence of the rest of the Ummah. Turning a blind eye on our brothers and sisters. We can only hope that we are shown mercy By Allah(swt).

Dedicated to ModestMuslimah. Does she require any introduction? Such an amicable and adorable person [Mashaa'Allah]with a magnificent skill for writing ^_^ Keep it up #ChotoBoin! 

Dusk meets dawn

The sun graces the horizon

Darkness finds light

In their own harmonic fusion

Like a captive soul I feel inside,

So trapped in my own prison.

An ungrateful servant

So selfishly unobservant

Of the anguish that surrounded

And the pains of confinement.

The cries of the people

For justice and for freedom

For salvation and redemption

From the realm of evil.

But nights after night I silently retired

With a sense of contentment I so strongly desired 

Neglecting my brothers in need so dire

To come to their aid I did not aspire.

But with sincere apology in my heart

Oh my Lord I plea!

Show you’re infinite forgiveness and mercy upon me.

For all my brothers against contempt

For all my sisters disgraced and shamed

For all the lives I didn’t defend

Oh my Lord!

Where do I put all these regret?

For all the times I lost

Waiting for a miracle to happen

For all the chances I gave

For the evil to ascend

For all the torments endured

As I failed to protect

Oh my Lord!

How do I make amends?

Oh the Ever Forgiver

I heartily confess

Only on your forgiveness that I depend

For not a tree leaf shakes without your consent.

So with sincere apology in my heart

Oh my Lord I plea!

Rise me on the fateful day,

With those with whom You’re pleased.
