Day in and day out,
Night and day,
Man sees Signs of his Lord,
In the horizons, on his way.
The sun is setting,
To his Home, he's returning.
Did he fill his bag with good deeds?
Or just ran after desires and needs?
Allah’s Rope has reached the land,
From above the heavens.
The Qur'an is near at hand,
Will he follow its guidance?
