Rainbow World
We were busy with this fast-paced world
We neither had the time nor the desire to ponder
Out of blue came a deadly threatening enemy
It made us stop and forced to hide in our homes
We were running around in circles
We were on a journey to nowhere
We were taking for granted the miracle of life
We were being selfish, un-grateful & greedy
Now that the whole world has come to a standstill
We have started to understand the value of being
All that money & gold do not worth a dime
Health, love & compassion are the true treasures of life
Silence has replaced the hustle-bustle completely
Allah has shattered our facades and trickery
Now it is time to introspect and repent
Allah has always been waiting for us to return
We need to look beyond the sight and the visible
We need to comprehend the reason for this predicament
We have been called the “Crown of Creation”
So we must live up to our title and redeem ourselves
Let’s reinvigorate our barren heart and soul
Let’s find our lost humanity and hold on
Let’s abandon I and merge into a whole
Let it be the beginning of our “Rainbow World”
There is peace and laughter in this world
Everyone takes care of each other
Though the evil & sins still exist
But they are being suppressed by the persistent will
Distractions and attractions continue to urge
But self has a strong foundation to ward off wickedness
Perfection and Idealism can never be achieved
But humans have the ability to constantly flourish
