Forget Him Not Poem by Mohammad Younus

In the Name of Allah,
the most beneficent, the most merciful;
Remember the name of Allah, and forget Him
not;
Fulfil the purpose of your creation
by practicing service to the children of Allah;
Be steadfast in the remembrance of God;
In return to your remembrance, Allah will remember you too;
Serve the suffering children of Allah with affection and love;
And sing the glory of God while waking and sleeping;
The service to suffering humanity is the door to salvation;
Remember the name of God...
...your creator and the creator of the universe;
So long as...
...your last hour in this world has not come;
So long as...
...the number of breaths allotted to you do not end;
So long as...
...the divine music has not been withdrawn from you...
...render your Ibadat to the Lord through following His Laws;
Remember Allah sincerely and with devotion;
So long as...
...the opportunity exists, remember Allah sincerely and...
... with devotion, as if you see Him standing before you;
So long as you live...
...you must not sleep over the purpose of your life;
When you are performing your acts...
...remember He is over seeing you;
When life is gone, how can you then remember Allah...
...your creator, sustainer, and your cherisher?
So long as you live...
...you must not sleep over the purpose of your life;
What is the use of waking up later on...
...when the appointed hour of returning has come?
We must always live as dutiful servants, and...
...engage ourselves in the service of the Lord;
He alone succeeds who is wakeful...
...and does not waste his days;
Remember Allah so that darkness is removed...
...from you, and delusion is dispelled;
Revert to Islam and walk along the straight path...
...the path of those upon whom Allah has bestowed...
...His blessings, and...
...not of those who have been condemned by Allah...
...nor of those who go astray!
