Sabr and Shukr
There was so much on my mind
In my bed I lay
I turned to my side
I heard a voice say
“Stop all your whining,
Heart breaks declining,
You’ve got so much more than most
Look how you’re sleeping,
How much you’ve eaten
Don’t you know that you’re supposed to say/
Sabr and Shukr
Are wonderful thing s
The praises to Allah
We should always sing
When things go right
It’s from Him not me,
And when they are all
We get through patiently.
I got out of bed,
Began to walk,
Bumped into some folks,
And we started to talk,
Did you hear about the killing,
The bloodshed ,the stealing,
The grass got burnt on the other side.
Soldiers are coming,
People are running,
All that’s left is the orphan child.
Sabr and Shukr
Are wonderful things
The praises to Allah
We should always sing
When things go right
It’s from Him not me,
And when they are all
We get through patiently.
I open my eyes,
And begin to see
Everything that’s happening around me,
What seem half-empty
Now seems so full
There’s no use crying over what’s been spilled
While babies are dying
Mothers are crying
Their containers
Have never ever been filled.
Sabr and Shukr
Are wonderful things
The praises to Allah
We should always sing
When things go right
It’s from Him not me,
And when they are all
We get through patiently.
I open my eyes,
And begin to see
Everything that’s happening around me!
