Devotional Poetry

Feast of Qawl (Speech)

Feast of Speech

O Lord,
Thou hast created our vocal cords,
To give utterance unto Thy words.

O Lord,
Thou has created our tongues,
To sing Thy praise throughout eternity.

O Lord,
Thou has created our lips,
To intone the name of Thy Manifestation.

Poet's Note: ▼

I wrote this in 147 B.E. It was inspired by a feast I attended on the evening of November 22.
