WHAT DAYS ARE WE LIVING IN?

What days are we living in
Great evil who’s source is hidden from view
Masters of manipulation
The truth they render askew

Brilliance is used for evil
A small profit for this worldly life
What means the least? The people
Wandering in pain and strife

Time only worsens our reality
Ignorance and inability to change
Allah alone can save humanity
Islam has become something strange

Day to day is the only way to cope
Simple necessity is what is in need
As we cling to Allah’s rope
The rich are consumed by their greed

How much longer must this go on
Sometimes our faith grows weak
Tomorrow reveals a new dawn
Another day, thankful we can see and speak

The truth is there for all to see
Yet the fires of disbelief continue to burn
Death is imminent, on this we agree
To Allah we belong, and to Him we return
