Zikir Of Hazrat Azan Peer - Viii Poem by Syed Ahmed Shah

Allah, There is no other Deity
Except the One Supreme.
Mohammad is the Prophet,
Of Allah, the Purest Being.

Affirm it at the beginning
O ye, who believe.
Not a task so daunting,
Only a kindly light to lead.

The essence of all the wisdom
Kalma is a boon.
Sans this priceless kalma
There is darkness at noon.

Forget ye not these Kalma
O ye heedless beings,
Lest thee come to grieving
On the day of reckoning.

Kalma is the bounty
Know it well, O faithful one.
The sign of the garden,
When your fateful journey is done.
