- Syed Sohail Ahmed
My father was a noble tree
With great character for all to see
A heart full of mercy and empathy
His words sincere, his judgments justly
He was my guide in obeying our Lord
His advice was a treasure I adored
In my father, I saw nothing but love
A love so strong, sent from above
Among people, he was respected and revered
His knowledge was vast, his speech so clear
In many tongues, he spoke with ease
And in writing, he could always please
God's promise for the righteous is true
And our Prophet's words, a message anew
He who dies in love of the Prophet's kin
Dies as Witnessed, with forgiveness from Him
Glory to You, oh God, our Lord Divine
Forgive us our sins, and let us shine.
