A Dedication to Maher Zain

I wrote this poem in dedication to Maher Zain. His music helped me when I was in a very dark place. You helped me understand a few things. For that Thank you.


Peaceful a Melody

Flight of sparrows sings in many melodies
Through rain, hail and storm
Morning and night a flight worth taking
Singing melodies unknown to some
Song of happiness and sadness
Through stories told by wings of eyes that see many

Sparrows speech goes on and on
Hoping many people listen
But busy lives moves with heartless thoughts unannounced
Unmoved, unnoticed, unwilling to stop
But feelings change unknown by its cause
Annoyed by feelings felt in an unmoved heart
Cause anger directed at things unknown

How is it that a sparrow sings the very things that is obvious
Know we since we are made wiser
But are we wiser than a sparrow
Considered by many a beast not wise
Unperturbed by unkind comments made by many
A sparrow sings foretelling truth for hope to come

Many a flight a sparrow takes day by day
Singing its stories to many
Fly, fly my sweet sparrow
May your voice be heard where your wings fly every day.
