AlhamduliLlah!

I am just a rock

and everyday I sit and watch the sky.

I sleep here in the sun and rain

and do not question why.

I don’t want to be a bird

’cause us rocks were never meant to fly.

But you can sit and rest on me

When you pass by.

 

Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I’m a rock

And that is all Allah asks of me.

Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I’m a Muslim

And there’s nothing else I’d rather be.

 

I am just a tree

And this is the only life I’ll ever know.

I bow my boughs in worship

Whenever I feel the wind blow.

And my purpose in life

Is to grow when Allah says grow

And be a home for the birds and shade

For folks below.

 

Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I’m a tree

And that is all Allah asks of me.

Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I’m a Muslim

And there’s nothing else I’d rather be.

 

I am just a person

And my life is full of opportunity.

I can travel through the world

Over land and over sea.

But will I choose the path of Truth

Or a path to misguide me?

Sometimes I wish I had a simple life

Just like a rock or a tree.

 

But alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I’m a person,

and Allah has given me a choice that’s free.

So, alhamdulillah, I choose to be a Muslim

And there’s nothing else I’d rather be.
