Nur Afila

-By the Grace of God The Eternal, The All-Forgiving, and The One,
I ponder, o Nur Afila,
Why are you so beautiful?

-And your beauty is as sacred as the water of ablutions,
That washes away my sins in millions,
And gives me life and gives me passions.

-By the tears of Saidatina Aisha and Saidatina Fatima,
I ponder, o Nur Afila,
Why are you so beautiful?

-And your beauty is as sacred as the water of the Well,
That sits beside the Kaabah, where the angels dwell,
And where I hope that one day my tears would swell.

-Sometimes, o Afila, I ask the Time,
If Time would freeze, and you'd be mine,
But I know the answer, even if the Time
doesn't answer it; you won't be mine.

-"Then my tears would fall, and I'd be an unbeliever;"
"Then my tears would fall, but I just can't forget her;"
"Then my tears would fall, please Lord, please protect her;"
So my tears did fall, and I bow down in prayer,
Asking God whether I am still a believer.

-By the Grace of God The King of Kings, The Judge and The Lover,
My love for you, o Nur Afila, will stay in my heart forever.
