Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
Searching for a love that’s true
And sweet
Shivering cold
A beauty my eye could only dream to behold
I’ve found him.
…as for me,
I’m just engulfed in the bliss of all this
Wanting eternal happiness
Trying to navigate through this worldly abyss
A balancing act, trying not to fall in a pit of fire
Surrounded by base desire…
But anyway, back to my heart
He had it all from the start
And though my eyes have not yet earned the grace
Of gazing at his lovely face
I can almost taste the sweetness of his presence
And as my heart aches, and body quivers
I can only think of the shiver
Of my beloved
Al-Muzzammil, al-Amin, Muhammed Mustafa
I do not near deserve to utter your name
For that my love and deeds do not yet coincide-I feel shame
For can a love be true that doesn’t manifest
Itself as much work with little rest
For if I knew as he knew, I’d laugh little and weep much
I’d cherish every prayer and every lovers touch
Not a moment of time would I ever deem free
Every breath would encompass dhikr of my Lord and His nabi
Upon waking, a true consciousness of how my Lord manifest
Death from life, and my life from death
Returning my soul is a mercy to me
I have tainted its purity through forgetfulness and sin
I have wrongfully pulled it low, though ALLAH created it high
I have surrounded it with enemies, through so-called ‘friendship’ ties
And as I try to turn away from this world which has brought me much grief
and sadness
I thank ALLAH for saving me from the ultimate madness of kufr
And my love
I yearn to see him
And I pray ALLAH sees fit that I do not burn
I will painstakingly await my turn
Through life and judgment
And whatever is written that I’m meant to experience
My own personal deliverance from error
>From the prison of this life
To be his wife is more than a privilege and more than I deserve
He is a perfect word
>From Our Lord
He is the chosen one
Forever adored
