Don’t Wait Too Long

Khalid Mukhtar · May 5, 2023 · Leave a Comment

There is one God
Just ask your heart
But only after it may start
To beat the drum
Of lasting Truth
For that my friend
Will outlast you

The prophets came
All men you know
They came and went
Like shepherds go
Each looking over
His own flock
Reminding we’re
Of one-God stock

The last of them
The Lord’s habīb
A Rahmah unto
All the worlds
He came affirming
What his brothers
Told their flocks
Who came before

So listen to your heart my friend
It won’t betray you in the end
Hear its beat and heed its song
There is one God and one alone

Don’t wait too long
