With Eyes of Compassion

What our eyes see goes directly to our hearts,

And the hearts in turn begin to feel, a concomitant of our gaze

So borrow your sights O muslims from the ocean of Compassion

So you see the good as it is, and the bad with empathy

As muslims we are taught to make excuses

One after another, one for the other

So we live with mutual love, and in unity

And sometimes you know, we make excuses and though

They seem exhausted, what more reason could there be?

But really, we all are not perfect and maybe, just maybe

There’s another reason you may not see

So before taking offence or getting angry let us please

Think again and leave that little room for the excuse that may not have crossed our minds

And for mistakes, we feel responsible; and that’s a reflection of our maturity

So we see beyond the one who makes it and we seek only to correct it

And revenge is eliminated from our hearts; our egos annihilated

All that our hearts reflect is the warmth from the Eyes of Compassion
