How can I just walk by
How can I just ignore the pain I see
Is this what society wants, has taught
For me to see a human being in pain, without a home without support
I am to walk by and forget it
Where have we gone wrong, where are the versus that we are taught
Why don’t they jump to our minds
Why don’t they make us stop
To give charity, to give a smile, to give support
Oh Allah (SWT) we say we practice and follow
Oh Allah (SWT) we say we understand your word
In truth we hide and forget it in order to live our busy lives
I cry of shame, I cry of hopelessness
I am but a whisper, a small helping hand
Oh Allah (SWT) enlighten us, let us see your splendor your majestical guidance
Oh Allah (SWT) Help you creations to live in harmony and to help each other as your word has been written
