Poem - What has happened!

[nicegal]

Assalamualaikum



What happened to those days when my faith was strong?
>When I wouldn't dare think of doing anything wrong
>when my yaqeen in Allah would lead me through
>the good and bad .. the old and new
>What happened to those days when my du'aa was sincere?
>when there was absolutely nothing on earth that I would fear
>when I was certain that Allah was really near
>and would run to Him and leave all that is dear
>What happened to those days when I could read and recite well?

>when I bought al-janna and this dunya I would sell
>when my heart was pure and all full of light
>when my qiyam was my only source of strength and might
>What's wrong my nafs .. why did you fall?
>Don't you know that Allah knows and hears your call?
>A little test like this one shouldn't beat you so
>It shouldn't pull you down to a level so low
>Don't you know that Allah chooses what is best
>and that this is all a previously planned test
>Don't you know that He hears your soul .. He hears your cry

>He sees you fall .. He sees you sigh
>Allah is Great .. Allah is Al-Hakeem
>His ways are just no matter how dark it may seem
>Hold on my nafs to the fireball in your palm
>Hold on to it and when it burns act calm
>whenever it falls, bend down and restart
>let those tears fall and wipe that heart
>Remember my nafs the beauty of the promised firdaws
>You know it's your dream to build there a house
>Get back on your feet and go back to those days
>I know this only a passing phase ..
