Can you hear the rhythm of Allah’s creation?
The rhythm of the clapping of the thunder and the rain
Can you see the rhythm of Allah’s creation?
The lightning and the leaves, and the seasons as they change
Watch the children in the field, spinning round and round
Watch their silly, dizzy falls upon the ground
They grip on to long grass afraid of spinning with the sun
Reality deceives them neath the smiling mask of fun
Can you see the rhythm of Allah’s creation?
The rhythm of the children aging brown hair into gray
Can you see the rhythm of Allah’s creation?
Alternation of the moon and the stars passing into day
Watch the grown-ups all twirling with the clock throughout the day
Watch them spinning with the hours while the clock hands tick away
They talk and grip the world as they would catch a falling knife
Reality deceives them neath the musing games of life
Can you hear the rhythm of Allah’s creation?
The storm against the sand, and the pulsating waves
Can you see the rhythm of Allah’s creation?
The rhythm of the children running wind upon the graves
The rhythm of our world beats in surrender to Allah
Our blood and our breathing testify
The rhythm if surrender is a part of who we are
With each heartbeat and involuntary blink of our eyes
A part of us we can’t deny
Can you hear the rhythm of Allah’s creation?
The storm against the sand, and the pulsating waves
Can you see the rhythm of Allah’s creation?
The rhythm of the children running wind upon the graves
