The Light . . .
A life of darkness was once my fate...
A dollar short...many days late...
I see a light up ahead, is it one that I shall dread?
Its shimmering brilliance draws me near...
Giving me hope, where once there was fear...
Welcomed warmth fills my soul, where once there was numbing cold...
I walk toward it with a determined pace...
Intending confidently to win this race...
A race with time as my foe...
With spiritual strength, I will grow...
Sustained by will and the power of God...
Onward, onward, I slowly trod...
Now a few steps from my goal...
Salvation's reward, so I'm told...
Once I've reached the point of bliss...
Satan and his dupes, I won't miss...
I pray to God that I'll one day be...
The source of light He created, all to see...
Salaam!!
-- Tariq Ibn B. Mujahid
