Allah gives light in darkness,
       &nbsp Allah gives rest in pain,
Cheeks that are white with weeping
       &nbsp Allah paints red again.

The flowers and the blossoms wither,
       &nbsp Years vanish with flying fleet;
But my heart will live on forever,
       &nbsp That here in sadness beat.

Gladly to Allah's dwelling
       &nbsp Yonder would I take flight;
There will the darkness vanish,
       &nbsp There will my eyes have sight.
