The Holy Maqam

By Rayhana

Within the vicinity of the auspicious An-Nabawi
lies a great soul, the greatest of all mankind, ever
for he is Muhammad, the Lord's last messenger
our beloved Rasulullah, may peace be upon him, forever

Oh dear Prophet, Ya Rasulullah Ya Habibullah
we've come from far and near, to give you Salaam
though we have never even met
yet we feel you, we love you and we long for you
for you are surely the best ever lived

Tears rolled down incessantly
just as we set eyes on the holy 'maqam'
our body and soul prostrated within your 'raudhah'
ardently hoping for your 'syufaah' on the 'Day of Judgement'
oh dear Prophet, peace be unto you...
