There are many that I meet,
As i traverse this earth,
Many people,
All their different roles and ways.
Very few follow me,
Stalk me if you will.
For jannah is my goal,
And many are my enemies,
Who stop me from this home.
However One is watching,
Constantly aware,
Better than myself he knows,
What I do and where...
He set on me a companion,
Visits me in the times i was unaware,
Many times he comes,
To pity me, in grief and despair,
For he also hates to see me sin,
Similar to the One who sent him there,
He sees me and says, "Oh woe to you!
Do you have no memory,
No intellect or fear?
You sin by day I see you,
You also do not leave it by the night,
You love to disobey,
But do not fear the day when you will wish to take flight?
For on that day even I know of the pain,
Oh woe to you,
I wish i could warn,
But I was sent to do one thing,
that is to take your soul.
Oh Son of Adam, please take your chance!
Repent to your Lord,
For my most hated moments in this job is to see someone who obeyed,
then ended in their last moments disobeying...
So I beg you son of Adam, I know you don't see me here,
But please listen to the warnings around you and please take heed.
Your time is close, for I have been sent to increase my comings.
please oh son of Adam..."
They run away from him,
Don't they know its inevitable?
While your watching TV with your family,
Playing football on the streets,
Shopping for clothes or food,
Speaking with your friends,
Enjoying a meal,
Or sitting in class studying,
In your workplace,
In the toilet,
In sujud before the Almighty,
In ruku',
IN qiyam,
Saying the taslim,
Anywhere, anytime, any position,
Death is going to come for you.
So expect it,
He chases you, in the darkness of the night,
The brightness of the day...
Anywhere...
