We Love

We Love

We proclaim shahadatain
Remembering Your name
We pray to please You
Standing... in ruku and sujud
Being obedient to You
Paying the zakaat
Giving our due
Fasting the entire month through
Performing circuambulation about the house with pilgrims representing the hajji from all nations
Respresenting all societal strata
All being dutiful and making
du'a to You that we become better
For You we live
Out of our love for You we cry
In Your way we die
Unto You is our return
By You Resurrected and judged
Hopeful of Your mercy
It is You only we love
