Ramadan Kareem
I welcome you, Oh the sacred month of Ramadan!
With new sprouts of faith emerging in my barren heart,
With the Unseen showing the blaze of my Final Goal,
With a blissful blend of belief , joy and fear,
With a Divine aura overpowering my mind and soul,
I welcome you, Oh the sacred month of Ramadan!
Your name brings forth a flurry of soothing throbs,
from which countless hopes of salvation arise;
Your name comes to the rescue of my worries and shame;
It seems to blow the breezes of the gardens of Paradise .
I welcome you, Oh the sacred month of Ramadan!
May your advent shower on this trembling world,
the heavenly serenity, lasting peace and moral grace;
May the first glimpse of your moon on the globe’s horizon,
dissipate the dark and threatening clouds from its face.
I welcome you, Oh the sacred month of Ramadan!
