Translated by Niala Mohammad
My home is heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of life
And if I were to be what would I become without you
I live in comfort today because of your blessings
I remember your sadness, I remember your worry
You prayed for me all night, I recall those nights
You turned me into a flower and yourself into dust, you are the scent of spring breeze
My home is heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of life
Whenever I was sick, I remember the tears you shed
When I faced difficulties, I saw your heart ache
It is my responsibility to fulfill your every wish, but how will I ever fulfill this?
How will I go through life if, God forbid, you are not here by my side
God forbid, the day should come when I am here but you are no longer with me
My home is a heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of my life
From the moment I started crawling, you taught me about life
The fond memories I have sitting in your lap
When tears began to fill my eyes, your soul would fill with worry
In every pain and in every difficulty you are my strength
My home is heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of life
You raised me, you taught me every beautiful thing in life
If I am proud, it is because Allah made me your child
I will never hurt you, I will shed my blood for you
You enlightened me, you are the light in my path
My home is heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of life
Tell me- should I go up in smoke for you, or turn the world into smoke for you
I would sacrifice my wealth and gold for you, I would sacrifice my life for you
I will sacrifice my poetry and my existence for you
If it were permissible to worship you, then you would be my Ka’bah
My home is heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of life
If I compare you in the realm of beauty, you are more beautiful than anyone
Despite the hardships you face in life, people only recall your pampered past
You would not hesitate to spill your blood for me
You are worthy of every praise, you lack not a thing
My home is heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of life
If I wrote my whole life, I would never be able to finish your praise
Only a mother’s love is sweet, you will never find this love from a father
I pray that everyone gives you respect
God made you a miracle in my life
My home is heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of life
This poet would sacrifice himself for you
You are a great inspiration
My home is heaven because of you, you are my angel,
your life is an example for all to follow, you are the sustenance of life
