Henry Wadsworth Longfellow — Allah

Allah gives light in darkness,        &nbsp Allah gives rest in pain, Cheeks that are white with weeping        &nbsp Allah paints red again. The flowers and the blossoms wither,        &nbsp Years vanish with flying fleet; But my heart will live on forever,        &nbsp That here in sadness beat. Gladly to Allah's dwelling        &nbsp Yonder would I take flight; There will the darkness vanish,        &nbsp There will my eyes have sight.
