Held By God


How could a people
In the midst of genocide
Still see beauty and feel joy

How could children
With fearful hearts and amputated limbs
Still sing, celebrate birthdays and play swing

How could the terrorised hum to drone sound
Turning the shrill of killing machines
Into heavenly music

How could a tortured face
Still beam with
The most beautiful smile

How could an orphan
Keep her eyes, shimmering in tenderness
and love
For humanity

How could a little girl who witness horrors
Retain faith, hope,
kindness and compassion

How could a boy who knew nothing about the sky
Except jets, bombs and death
Send his kite up to challenge F16

How could a mother who lost her eyes
Or her children
Still turn to God in gratitude
And pray

How could life
Push through death
Conquer and thrive

Victory is not measured by
The amount of death and destruction you cause
Rather it’s cherishing the light of your soul

Serene


Dear Most Beloved,
I brought me to You
In pieces,
Battered and betrayed
Mend me with Your Touch;
Sublime

Here I am, running away;
To You
Escaping the jungle below
Embrace me with Your Wondrous Grace
Majestic… Divine

I dragged my broken heart
Laid it at Your Door
Empty,
Shattered and ​flayed
Resuscitate
​Relinquish of Your Heavenly Agape
Tranquil… Serene
Ameen

A Refugee

My Beloved

Tear-filled

My Beloved

Knocking at your door

Seeking help

Seeking Home

My Beloved

Running away

From persecution

Bloodshed

Cruelty

Deception

Treason

and Betrayal

Would you please let her in

My Beloved

Journey to Heaven


A blink of an eye

A frenzy spree

Between two dots

Birth and Death

Hello… Goodbye

We call

Life

Rest Assured


.
Don’t gasp in horror as it rains blood and bones

Don’t get scared as red imbue the clouds and sky

It’s only the martyrs flying home

.

.

Don’t despair by the ashes all around

Don’t lose faith watching a livestreamed genocide

It’s only a small chapter in legendary tale, of love and joy

.

.

Don’t lose hope as the world turns grey

Don’t anguish watching babies burn

With Almighty God, no fear, no sorrow, no pain

.

.

Don’t be disheartened by the darkness of their ways

Don’t ever think God is uninterested or unaware

God only gives them time, assigned for a certain day

.

.

​In which their eyes will gape, dismayed

Heart chilled and minds astrayed

The day they meet their deeds in person

Broadcasted to all, live, in 3D

.

.

Every wound they ever caused

They’ll feel with every atom of their being

Every baby they ever maimed

Will haunt them beyond the end of time

.

.

​Every tear they cause to fall

Will be their own forever more

Thus is karma, a universal law

No excuses, no escape

.

​.

“Chosen” delusion, inflated egos

Deflated down in an eternal Hell

Burst into nothigness, never to return

.

​Stay Focused… Stay Tuned


.

“Survival of the fittest” they say,

“Survival of the most adaptive” they say

In truth, I say

It’s survival of the most in harmony with the universe

​Those who live in tune with its majestic code

Those who dance to its magnificent music

.

.
Those who tear when they hear its enchanting song

Those whose souls are intertwined with the rest of creation

Those who understand the Divine Wisdom behind existence

.

.
Those who oscillate in sync with all there is

Those who aspire to embody the most beautiful attributes

​Of the One, Most Merciful, Most Sublime

.

Moral Compass 👀 !



A mother wails
Bemoans her child
Killed every moment
Of every day
Of every month
Of every year
For eight decades

Soul sores
Raging untamed
Wounds ragged and raw
Words avalanche
Unmanicured, unpolished
Deafening, no sound
Story untold

Biting her pain
Quoting their books
Pointing her finger
Screaming out loud
They can’t be “chosen”
They are a fraud

If her voice
Offends you
More
​Than
Mountains of babies
Starved
Burned
Shredded
Crushed
Into oblivion

You need to question your moral compass

Did You Ever?


​Did you ever hear

God’s whisper

In your ear

“I love you”
* * *

Smiling babies, dancing daisies

Climbing roses, shimmering meadows

Gifted for you

* * *

Did you ever notice

That secret message

Encrypted in Heaven

Painted in the sky

To get your attention

“I am thinking of you”

* * *

Did you ever

Feel God’s hands

Lifting you up

Holding you tight

“You mean so much to me”

“I will never let go of you”

* * *

Turquoise oceans, deep forest mountains

Golden beaches, hills and valleys

Spread out to bring joy to you

* * *

Did you ever

Watch God’s splendour!

Bestowed upon you

Tears fall down

Head on the ground

Spellbound, it leaves you

* * *

When all goes dark

When hopes fade away

No one around

No end in sight

Lo and behold,

Out of God’s kindness

A light so bright, glows inside you

* * *

Did you ever

Read God’s mystic letter

Flowing with affection

Signed with love, sent only for you

* * *

Did you ever know

How highly honoured

How much adored

By The One who

– Out of nothing, fashioned you

* * *

Did you ever

Feel God’s tender kiss

Enchanting you

Leaving in dazzling awe,

That wild child in you

* * *

Did you ever

Hear God’s voice; sweet, sublime, serene

A gentle stream, lilac perfume, morning dew

Mist and sunshine, solely for you

* * *

In the silence of the desert

In the pounding of waterfalls

In the laughter of Your children

In the stillness of the stone

I feel Your love, I hear Your voice

“Forget me not”

“Rely on Me, I am always there”

I thank You Lord, I love You so

Let Your will be always mine

* * *

حبيبي


حبيبي وخالقي وسيدي ومولاي
كن حاضراً في قلبي
إن سكت أو تحدثت
إن نمت او استيقظت
إن سكنت أو تحركت
إن فتحت عيني أو أغمضت
إن سعدت أو حزنت
إن أمنت أو خفت
إن أُكرمت أو أُهنت
إن دُعمت أو خُذلت
وإن رُزقت أو مُنعت

توجت عرشك في قلبي
فاغدق عليه من فيض نورك
يا حبيبي

هاك قلبي يا حبيبي لا يخفق الا بحبك
هاك عيني يا حبيبي لا تريا الا جمالك
هاك شفتي يا حبيبي لا تنطقان إلا بما يدل عليك
هاك يدي يا حبيبي لا تفعلان إلا ما يرضيك
هاك قدمي يا حبيبي لا تتحركان إلا إلى حيث تحب
هاك عمري يا حبيبي لا يمر إلا بتقديسك
هاك حياتي يا حبيبي لا تمضي إلا بحمدك وشكرك
هاك مشيئتي يا حبيبي لا تكون إلا مشيئتك
هاك روحي يا حبيبي لا تسكن إلا بجوارك

On the Road Again
