Ripened Fruits Waiting for Thee
On
Ramadan
Of Clay and Water made are we,
In the Heart of hearts God made our souls to be,
Empty yourself of worldly attachment,
Let yourself be truly free.
Hunger is the flame that burns the dross,
Thirst the bellows that fans the flame,
Righteous Act and Goodly Thought is food for Hearts,
Return to God, be not ashamed.
Ramadan is a month of fasting true,
The fast of the elite is not reserved for few.
Lower the gaze and be not unkind,
In your heart find peace divine.
Half of faith is charity,
The other half sincerity,
Fast with intentions of the pure,
And in Ramadan attain piety.
Ahmed Hussain
