Idul Fitri Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar!
La ilaha ilallah, Allahu Akbar!
Allahu Akbar, Walillahilhamdu!

a harmonious, joyous voice
echo all around earth, sea, and sky
everybody cheer up, everything shine

a victorious, amorous sound
soar so beautifully, proudly and confidently
human and nature join in gorgeous celebration

all hearts bow to Allah
all eyes cries in faithfully pray
all families smile to face a new day

only to God, only to Allah
all thanks dedicate, all best wishes go
all praises ascend, all greetings deliver

the Most Merciful, the Greatest
forgive us, our children, our parents
guide us to the bright path, to the right way

the Most Powerful, the Greatest
bless us, our nature, our environment
save us, our friends, our families, our leaders

Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar!
La ilaha ilallah, Allahu Akbar!
Allahu Akbar, Walillahilhamdu!

(dedicated to a great poet at poemhunter, Muhammad Ali)
