this morning i woke up with one goal

to worship God and care for my son

by isha time i was exhausted

relieved that my work was done

and then God reminded me of you

mother of 4 boys like mine

you raised them from when they were little

devoting all of your time

but they left you alone on this earth

for the love of their brother Husayn

as hard as I try to imagine

I can’t even imagine your pain

your faith is the type that moves mountains

and inspires men like me to climb

to prepare for the ascent to Heaven

and follow your lead until it is my time

so Umm al-Banin please teach me

how to raise up a son like yours

so that no matter what happens on Earth

forever with Husayn he will soar

اللهم صل على محمد و آل محمد
