The oceans dried up
Not one but two,
But the words of my Lord written were few,
…
Each drop of divine ink
Each letter, each word
Their unchartered depths few have explored
…
“Sibghtullah”
The Colors of Allah
Dye yourself in them and attain falah.
…
The hues of humility
The perfect tints of gratitude
The gait, the speech, the right attitude
…
In the style
Of the Nabi (saws) and the blessed few
They strive but they smile as if Jannah they view
…
Intense in their devotion
Their obedience glows
In the darkest of nights spent bowed low
…
Not like chameleons
They change their colors, or discard
When the going gets tough, or the opposition hard
…
Their deen dyed deep
Not washed away
By the changing tides of culture, or fashion’s sway
…
Awash in divine recitation
They persist and depend
On none
But the One
…
At peace in the knowledge
That blessed they are
To be drenched in
‘Sibghatullah’
The Colors of Allah
