Lethal Me
A day shall come
I shall be no more
I shall sleep in peace
and wake no more
people shall call my name
but my soul and body will rise not
friends and family shall cry
I shall be buried in a lonely grave
and people shall bid me farewell
and leave me behind with my deeds
because I shall take the lonely journey alone
I shall lay in the midst of sand
my body shall be food for maggot
I will b forgotten soon
and my face shall disappear in friends mind
but my handwork shall live on
I shall meet my creator .
everyone shall die
but d almighty Allah shall remain
on his mighty throne
with his mighty crown
the fierce king shall die
the poorest man shall die
and meet their creator in d same manner
because our journeys shall end one day.
