Death comes but once
It comes without any alarm
God’s actions can’t be judged by humans
I grieved when I heard your sudden death
Why did you leave so soon?
Why did you go and leave tears in our eyes?
Why didn’t you survive?
Guess I have no answers to that!
I know it’s true
Your death came too soon
Which brought tremor to my heart
I wish you were still around
I wish you could come back and fulfill your promises and dreams
Why were you in a haste to leave?
Guess I have no answer to that!
The bird which followed you up
An angel he calls himself
The man killer
He separated you from me and the divine world
And that saddens my heart
He took you knowing you have beautiful queens you left behind
Crawling and crying for your silent death
The luxurious things you never go with
Perishing for you are not with them
Why were you in haste to leave?
Guess I have no answer to that!
Thanks to the Almighty for he knows why things are done
The all-knowing, the wise
For he, is your master
Thy! His just turned back on you to live
For thee went with Iman
May the beautiful Angels be with you
Rest in perfect peace Abdoulie Gibril Dibba.
