When You Feel So Helpless

O lord of the heavens above

O lord of the earth below

I call upon thee

O creator of the sun

O creator of the moon

I invoke you, the Deity

My lord I need not voice my worries to you

You know it all

And all the rest too

But what am i supposed to do?

There’s a pain in my heart, that’s so craving

And my whole soul is trembling

You have all the power there is

O my lord help me

I invoke the assistance of none but thee

You give peace to whom you will

But if you choose not to help me

Pain and agony will shatter me

O lord my heart weeps tears of blood

I am not complaining

I just don’t want any one besides you to know

O God i love you so much

And whenever i cry before you

All my agonies are washed away

Please forever keep me in your loving embrace

I am nothing but your humble slave

And you are the one in whom I have all faith

Empty and All Alone

Sometimes it’s hard to know

That which way you need to go

The minds filled with queries

The heart feels so aching

It seems you are lost and all alone

There’s no one you can count on

Whichever way you look

There are vast spreads of gloomy emptiness

It’s like no one understands you

Or more like there’s no one even suitable to talk to

All you want to do is weep in silence

All this nagging must end

Nothing charms you

Everyone alarms you

You just don’t know what the hell you should do!

For even when surrounded by thousands, you feel all alone

You wonder how can they be so happy

When deep inside you are filled to the brim with agony

Are their smiles fake and mere pretentions?

Or they have really found all the answers?

There’re so many voices in your head

It seems your mind’s gonna blow up

But at the end of the day

There’s a voice in the depths of your heart

Which lies there distinct of all

And to you it seems vaguely familiar

But first you need to shun the rest of the noise

Before you are able to follow this truth

It may seem hard at first

But what you need is to trust the one who’s worthy of all trust

In reality you are never alone

For he’s closer to you than your jugular vein

Thus faith in him is all you need

Yes, he’s the only one who can fill all your empty space with the utmost ease

Brighten your life

Sometimes it’s hard to know,
That which way you’re supposed to go.
Problems are straining your mind.
Your whole life seems upside down.
It feels as if you’re surrounded by darkness all around.
And there’s nothing but emptiness inside you.
But all you need is to have faith,
In the one in whose hand your destiny rests.
For only then can you survive the craving pain,
And fill your entire being with peace and happiness.
Stand to pray!
For that’s another way.
He himself said:
“Find help in patience and prayer”
So just have faith!
In the mighty one,
And trust him with all you can.
Only then will your whole world brighten,
Unlike any other brightness you can ever imagine.

Friends

Should I love,
Should I trust,
A mere, human being?
O my lord,
It’s so hard
Please O please, guide me.
How am I, supposed to know
Who’s sincere, with me?
Humans are, such crafty beings.
They hurt and inflict, agonizing wounds.
Lord O lord
Is it my fault,
That I am such a simple thing?
Please O please
Fill their hearts, with your love.
And affection for, one another
Make my friends, honest and kind
Just like my beloved family
After all, we’re but, a single brotherhood
And I’m sure you’ll accept my prayer
‘Cause it’s completely unselfish

Humans Beyond My Understanding

Humans are such strange beings
They come in all colours, shapes and sizes
Each has his unique attitude too.
His intelligence is staggering.
So is his foolishness!
Such a pompous creature
And hasty too.
Some are tenacious, in the face of opposition
Others find themselves better off with little resistance
Some are limitlessly selfish
Some dessert their own needs to feed others
More savage than the lion
Can be eviler than the Satan
Greed is a curse he himself says
But doesn’t abide by with his own deduction
Gluttony and sloth are just the two of his negativity’s
Is more frail than a butterfly
But thinks himself inferior to none
The haughty, hasty being is so foolish
Learns and teaches economics and transactions
But doesn’t understand the life’s bargain
Sees none but himself
So selfish he is
Wants to gain so much
But for what knows not
However there are some exceptions among the cruel kind
Who seem none like their wicked brethren
They think and are kind
They don’t waste their time
They have the inner peace
Theirs souls are at rest
Prophet Muhammad was the best example
The greatest creature ever brought to life
Who used to forgive the greatest of his persecutors
And love the poor
To narrate his attributes is a far too lengthy endeavor
Wanted to save the foolish kind from bottomless pits of fire
But this ungrateful nation has no time to spare
They’ve got better things to do than save their selves from an eternal torment
These things called humans are simply beyond my understanding
But wait a second!
I haven’t even been able to understand my own humanly self
Wonder why am I trying to figure the worthless beings out,
who care for none but their own selves?
I guess I’m just as moronic as them!

Anger

There are times in life
When things don’t go the way you want
You feel so angry
It’s totally exasperating
Even the very people you love seem so irking
Nothing feels right                   
You just want to pound everything in sight
But at that time when you think that the whole world is erring
Deep down you also know it’s your own rage
That makes the world go bloody red
It is then that you need to sit down and take a deep breath
And think about your lord who has ordered you to kill your wrath
It is rage that makes you do the most regrettable things in life
What can be worse than hurling abuses, wreaking stuff or hurting others?
Satan makes the matter worse
All you got to do is shut your mouth and drink some water
Pray to your lord to protect you from the Satan
Think about your loved ones
And the good times in life you have spent
Finally when you are calm enough
Try to solve the problem which had caused the irritation
Just stick to this charm and your life will be beautiful
Plus your lord will save u from the hell
Self-control and a lot of effort may be needed

But trust me it’s definitely worth it

That Special person

Some people are special naturally
Neither by endeavour nor by wishing
Their lord makes them that way                        
For another person and for him, solely
It could be that the Lord has made every mortal unique
But kept the beauty in the eye of the beholder
Only the two who are meant for one another
Can see and feel the difference in their love
Like all exemplary relations this bond needs much patience
Sacrifices have to be made and courage displayed
But once the Lord wills, he needs say only 'Be'
And the destined souls can feel themselves being elated
Once their love blossoms it means they have been blessed
With a relationship none like any other they have ever had
There are no barriers of age or gender; status or physical beauty
It can simply be called destiny
Those special to each other no longer know the meaning of being selfish
Their hearts now contain nothing but pure feelings
It’s a connection between two souls made from the Great light
Intricate and simple side by side
It’s just too hard to describe
Only those who have felt it
Can possibly know what the real deal is
The happiness of being with that special person
The tenderness of his warm feeling
The agony of missing him
Fear of losing him, side by side
The loving words
The magical hugs
The fun chit chats
Messing with others
Those little fights
And the big scary ones too
The emotional scene once the quarrel is over
And soon after which there is uncontrollable laughter
For each moment with that special person
You thank Allah almighty with all you can
In the end you hope that you will be able to stay with that person forever
Both in this world and in the paradise of hereafter
For that’s how special the person really is
It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks of it
However, one important thing is to not lose sight of the real truth
You’d better not love that mortal more than the one truly worthy of it
Your creator is the one you ought to love the most
For he’s the one who blessed you with these feeling in the first place
Keep this in mind and all shall be well
Both for you and that special one
