To my dear mother
You were a pillar of strength
You were a symbol of patience
The light of love and life
I wish I could still live under your shadow
Hope you were here I would tell how much you are dear, still rejoicing over the last Eid
Memories filled with joys and tears
Wishing you were here
Still searching for your smiling face, which made me forget my worries,
Still searching for your shining eyes which gave hope in every fear
Still searching for your warm embrace
But I cannot find anyone like you my mother
You were my most valuable friend to me
Which I have cherished forever
You were the heap of happiness which made my tears away
You will remain my role model, for all your pains and struggles
You made me what am today, standing proud and successful,
It’s all your hard work my mother, I owe everything to you
O my mom I miss you ever
The last breath, I couldn’t feel,
The last words you uttered, I couldn’t hear,
The last and final goodbye I wouldn’t reply
How I wished I was near to you mother
The last hope is that we meet in Jannah, I strive hard and pray hard
As Allah has promised all near ones will be together
Never departed forever and forever
This is my last wish to see you soon after I depart from this world.
