Alhamdulillah, I Am Now Eighteen Poem by Habeeb Kayode Yahaya

Alhamdulillah, i am now eighteen
The rahma of Allah is what am seeking
Oh! My mind is now metarmophosed
And the tempting mind will always force

Eighteen years ago, i was born
My childhood's characteristic are totally gone
Now am free according to Nigeria's law
Oh Allah protect me from the devil's store

Now my mind will always crave for evil
But insha-Allah, i will overcome the devil
Eighteen years, such a complicated age
And with optimistic thoughts, i do meditate

Oh Allah shower me your blessings
Eliminate my foes and protect my sibblings
Bestow upon me, knowledge with comprehension
And guide me to the path of moral attention

I am happy because am still alive
Many had craved for it but still they died
Alhamdulillah Robil-aalamin
My praises goes to the king of the kings

Oh Allah grant me longlife
Grant me prosperity in my life time
Increase in me, my deen and ibaadah
And make me a proud son of my lovely mother
