You are Al-Ghafur
The Forgiver and Hider of Faults
I beg you to hide my sins and weaknesses
Like the night hides the brightness of day
And envelopes it in darkness
I know my heart is black
And yet I feel there are droplets of light
Piercing there way through
Just like the bright stars pierce the heavy black velvet cloth of night
Let the remembrance of your beloved names
Burn the darkness of my heart away
As the sun burns the night away
