Hold Me Close, Mother Dear

By the fear of world so mean, 
i ran far away to the land, never heard or seen.
i was floating in current of fears 
and my heart full of tears.
then came someone so dear, 
to dry off my tear
and hold me close and near, 
with open arms like a 'welcome scene'
then i found myself safe, as i have never been.
now i lie in these arms with no fear.
the one to hold me so close is MOTHER DEAR......

Animals Are Better Than Humans

i saw birds pecking at a snake, 
to save nest of their fellow mate.
i saw a lioness standing against the lions pride, 
to save a calf, she did fight.

i saw monkeys fight a dog to save kitten, 
though in salvaging they got bitten.
these all made me think, 
there i love all around.

then i saw a man stabbing his friend, 
for money was more important in his ken.
i saw a woman killing her daughter, 
because she was not happy with the girl's father.

i saw a brother killing the other, 
with his own hand, 
just for a piece of land.
and all these made me think, 
animals are much more better.

who kill because of nature, just to feed.
on money, land and position they dont pay heed.
but humans are not humans any more.
who re infecting the world in whole.

going against their nature, 
as on money, land and position they pay heed.
and kill others even when they have all they need
they keep destroying each other.

Oh Allah

OH! ALLAH! I THINK OF THEE, 
when every tiny bit i see.
when i see the buds blossom, 
i think of thy creation so awesome.
when i see the birds & butterfly, 
i cant stop the praise of thy! 

OH ALLAH I THINK OF THEE! 
when every landscape i see, 
when i see the well arranged maize, 
my head bows in thy praise.
when the sun rises on each day new.
oh allah! i cant stop praise of you.

OH ALLAH I THINK OF THEE! 
when different creatures i see
when i see the pillar-less sky, 
i cant stop the praise of thy.
every bit of your excellent creation
urges me to surrender my soul in your devotion............

I Have An Angel

dad's blessings protects me like an angel,

at every danger it knell, 

when i am in troubles big or wee, 

it gives me strength to face them boldly.

it makes sure that i am loved & cared, 

specially when i feel lone & scared.

i have the world of joy & glee.

still i need this angel every second with me.

though my life is carefree & independent, 

yet for my luck, on this angel i am dependent.
