Hymn Thy Lord, Get Up Poem by Mohammad Younus

Listen, the golden day has dawned,
See, the morning birds are gently singing...
In chorus they hymn and praise their God,
They're overfilling the world with melodies,
See, get up early and not make harsh noise,
Do not open the windows making a loud noise,
All the singing birds in the courtyard,
...singing merrily on the bougs and branches,
In a rush might fly off to the deep and vast sky,
Let you, in silence, hear the sweet melodies,
Soon these morning guests will leave to fend...
for their food, and to fly and glide in the sky,
With their mouths shut up while on their work,
In the evening they shall come back home,
They shall but hymn before going into their nests,
O sleeping people, get up for your work like birds,
Remember the name of God from sunrise to sunset.
'The seven heavens extol His limitless glory,
and the earth, and all that they contain;
And there is not a single thing but extols...
His limitless glory and praise:
But you [O men] fail to grasp...
the manner of their glorifying Him!
Verily, He is forbearing, much-forgiving',
This is plainly told by your lord in al- Quran.
