Searching For Allah Poem by Tasadduq Hussain

The smile of blooming flowers,
The cool comforting rays of moonlight,
The singing and dancing birds on daffodils,
Is that you my God! Is that YOU!

The dew drops trickling on lips of flowers,
Glittering in the bright sunshine,
The magnificent display of YOUR love for beauty.
Is that YOU my beloved God, is that YOU.

Cool wet morning breeze on a rainy day,
Bright beautiful colors of rainbow,
The rolling grey clouds on blue skies
Is that You my Lord is that You!

The music in the silence of my imagination,
The gentle sound of “Allah hoo”, “ Allah hoo”
A pleasant surprise to my wandering mind,
Is that you my beloved Lord is that you!

You are in my thoughts, in my prayers,
all around in my view, whatever I do,
But I still wonder! Why can’t I see
The revelations of your beauty, your love for me.

Yes it’s you, I know, It’s you
in every beautiful image, sound and sight,
It’s you, I see you and love you in every view,
It’s you my Allah, the exalted in might, the wise, merciful,
All forgiving, and Kind, it’s You.
