NO MORE

No more will you knock at our door.

No more will you walk on our floor.

No more will you drink our tea.

No more will you see what we see.

No more will you hear what we hear.

No more will you fear a fear.

No more will you shed a tear.

No more will you enjoy our foods.

No more will you tread our roads.

No more will you roam our woods.

No more will you inquire after me.

No more will you smile at me.

No more will you call my name,

But all the same

And despite all the pain

You stood to gain

When you clearly said

Just days before you were dead:

أشهد أن لا إلاه إلا الله

و أشهد أن محمدا رسول الله

اللهم لك الحمد على ما أعطيت

اللهم لك الحمد على ما أعطيت

اللهم لك الحمد على ما أعطيت

You said it yourself, dad,

And we were all, all sad

For we feared time might be up, father,

And you wouldn’t go farther.

It’s hard, hard, hard

To bear to see you there

In the graveyard –

While we are here,

Where we can’t hear

Your voice or see your smile.

But it’s only a while

And we shall all be there!

I know your bones may decay

I know the worms may eat your flesh away,

But your soul will remain whole

And one day you will revive

And stay alive

For ever and ever.

And I know also

That we shall all go:

No money will keep us for ever.

No medecines will keep us for ever.

No doctor will live for ever.

Praise to Allah Who never dies!

Praise to Allah Who made Paradise!

اللهم ارحم أبي و أسكنه فسيح جناتك

اللهم اجعلنا خير خلف لخير سلف

"إنا لله و إنا إليه راجعون"
