You are my Lord
I am the sculpture of Buddha
You have set me up
On a designation so high
If I act wise they will try to defame me
If I act dumb they will try to defame you
So save your glory, fame and shine
By saving that of mine
You are mine and I am thine
I bow down for it is true
That I submit myself to you

I agree I aint worth these wishes
But I know for sure
You are the one most gracious
So let me catch a glimpse of you
Coz
I submit myself to you

I won’t wait for the Day of Judgment
I know I will surely catch a glimpse of you
But I won’t look unique up there
And you know why? Coz
You will be bias on the Day of Judgment
It’s my logical point of view
Coz along with the Heavenly companions
Even the Hell dwellers will catch a glimpse of you
So I want it here,
Here is where I wanna get through
Coz this was the place I chose
To submit myself to you

Whenever my kin showed their backs on me
Trying to understand your commandments
I have seen you cheering me up sitting beside
Describing the permitted and forbidden
Even though I spent half of my life
With pain permitted and comfort forbidden
I am still one among the few
To submit myself to you

You did not make me laugh
Gave me no reason to cry
You did not make me weep
Gave me no reason to smile
I did not doubt your Quran
You don’t doubt my faith in you
For I submit myself to you

You trap me in this worldly vicious puzzle
Then ask me to hope for the hereafter
I was the only sinner also your obedient
But you kept ill treating me
Ignoring my forehead dent
You listen to me
Every time when I ask for them
And ignore me
Even when sometime I ask for myself
All my wishes still seem to be due
But I still submit myself to you

Every time that I have praised you
I have asked for my wishes to come true
For each of my prostrations
I have asked for favors in return from you
Coz I did submit myself to you

I know you colored the sky blue
To keep my head fresh and cool
But the filth in this world
Makes us look like crackpots
Makes us look like fools
But still
I’m proud of myself
I act arrogant that’s true
Only for the fact your soul resides in me
And I resemble the image of you
Whenever I submit myself to you

Tests, that’s what I’m scared of
Once in such a test I failed,
And I’m still not finished
Serving the period for it

The test of this world
Is so damn hard,
Even the white stone from heaven
Turned black and broke into pieces
Then I am but a mortal man
So please don’t punish me
Don’t act rude
Coz I submit myself to you

Not a second will it take for me
To become one of those who go extreme
But I walk on the straight path
Not for the fear of hell
Or for the love of eternal bliss
But because I want our friendship intact
Every once in a while
Wanna submit myself to you

Dreams are always honest
But the destiny betrays
Eyes are always steady
But the sight betrays
Soul is always alive
But the Heart betrays
No matter how hard it is
With your bitter betrayals
To stay in love with you
I still and will always
Submit myself to you
