Ramadan Ballad Poem by Khadim Hussain

Blessing, happiness and Joy,
In this holy month of Ramadan,
Muslims fasting from sun up to sun down,
Around the globe from America to Pakistan.

In this holy month of Ramadan,
No food or drink passes their dry and cracking lip,
After sundown feast like kings,
With family and friends in comradeship.

Holy month of Ramadan,
The most blessed month of the Islamic Year,
Muslims around the world unite,
And to the ways of the Qur’an try to adhere.

In this holy month of Ramadan,
Haji, Qazi, layman and sinner,
Stand side by side behind the Imam,
Begging Allah’s forgiveness each a winner.

In this holy month of Ramadan,
Muslim children learn Islamic Creed,
Read Salah and the Qur’an,
And improve themselves in word and deed'

Blessing, happiness and Joy,
Come only once a year
In the holy month of Ramadan,
Which all Muslims long for and revere.
