Long Praises Without Pebbles
Poet: Ismail Junaid Oluwadamilare (Paciolo Pen Saint)
I refuse to blame
Blaming is a temptation
I only want forgiveness,
Utter long praises without pebbles
From the calamity of yesteryear
When;
Misery was overwhelmed,
Sadness burnt fiercely,
Calamities of religions negated
Protruded souls with panic,
Brought vulnerable damages to the eyes of our faith & hope,
Harm to the best servants,
In the pleasure of tyranny clash
I see it as a little feast from His generous leg.
The affliction came as a reminder - scrutinized the pest within us.
I only want to utter long praises without pebbles
For He, who does not thank the blessings of him / how will he thank the blessings of Allah.
*"Alihamdulilahi" is not enough (It meaning is greater than what it fulfills).*
Let me adorn myself in His praises
So he does not deprive me of satisfaction.
Let me sail through the sea of words,
Follow the sweetest words & letters,
From the wave of yesteryear wanted to seize the boat of today
Capsize the rows & oaths in shame.
Words compete / phrases clash
To organise the contract of Thanksgiving
Here in the place of Thanksgiving I stand,
Spread it banner over my head & pillars,
My soul is great - it's a free attitude.
To you alone who take the ride of souls,
I deserve to raise your name above (for every thankfulness has a poem - every success has thanks & strings of appreciation).
Through the note of breeze,
Scent of flowers,
From the depth of depth
I say "Alihamdulilahi".
From your gentle smile that sheds the beauty of its light in the darkness of our hearts
Wipe out our worries in it.
From your tender touch
That explode in our hearts
A fountain of hope in this cruel life.
For the stars looming in your abode above ours
Whose brightness does not diminish from us a single moment
We're happy with their cheerfulness
So we say
"Alihamdulilahi"
