"What Prayer Is..."

These words I jot down, 'cos I shudder with fear
At the thought that young Muslims can sleep without prayer
That to close ones eyes can be as easy as pie
Thinking that prayer is a ritual, outdated, should die
You stupid young kid, you must be as dumb as a log,
For you have forsaken your freedom, to be lead like a dog!
Have you the faintest idea what will happen to you
When you rot in your grave with the worms gnawing through!
When your body is dust, your flesh rotted away, "GAME OVER" is flashing,
And no more credits to play!
Then the sun will explode and the mountains will sway
And the whole of creation will rise on that day!
The angels will fly, like moths to a flame,
And you'll tear from the earth, to explain your life's game!
Blackened to a char will be the skin on your face,
Your friends will desert you, there won't be a trace,
Iblis will be laughing, with a stitch on his side, because you were too STUPID, to get off his ride.
The wealth of this world, took you for its bride Its too late kid, its HELL for you inside.
A fire so hot, that the boulders will burn like a match exploding, it'll soon be your turn. If only you had that chance to repent,
You'd soon reconsider all the time that you'd spent!
And there will stand people, against whom you did tease,
'cos their sajdah did scare you, filled you with unease
While you tried to disown them, like a infectious disease,
Now you toss in the flames, while they cool in the breeze
In the line of eternity, your life is a dot a hundred years, just a twinkle,
Is all that you've got, 5 minutes of prayer! Not worth the time ?
Against your soul you've committed the greatest crime!
Prayer is not for your God, He does not need your words its for you to remember that your greatness ain't yours! When you put that big head on the humblest of dust,
Its your heart that you clean, all tarnished with rust!
You connect your soul with creations' Great Light Even the darkest of hearts
Can be left shining bright You remove all the sin, and Shaitan's whispering words and you slash evil's hold, with the greatest of swords.
Prayer is the path from earth to the sky,
From a caterpillar you'll become a bright butterfly.
Prayer makes you remember that you ain't all that hot
And that your life really starts, when your flesh starts to rot
Prayer is that link to the mother from the womb
Prayer is the guardian that protects you in the tomb.
Prayer untangles your life, like a comb through your hair
Against the fire of hell, it's the only cloak you can wear
So understand kid! To skip prayers is not cool,
Its so stupid, so mad, you must be a fool
It's like crossing a desert without water to drink
Just open your eyes kid, just sit back and think!
This world is a lie, this world is game
Like a poisonous snake, which you never can tame
And just as you turn you back on what's right
Fangs will leap from the darkness, and in your neck bite
As you lie in your coffin, facing the sky,
Your life will flash past, a twinkle in your eye
You'll scream as the truth is slowly unveiled
- its too late, mate. This one you've failleed.
