Death at any breath
A fine upright humanitarian man
for him Allah had other plans
Just know it wasn’t in vain
despite the anguish and pain
Know for sure he’s in a better place
amongst the shaheed is his space
In his hospital alive is his legacy
paved it’s way so ethically
A model refined upright soul
he knew his mission n goal
left all creature comfort
his family and support
Find solace that his final abode
will be befitting of his moral code
you did worry and apprehensively forbode
the virus will unleash, grip and control
Your worst fears did manifest
but trust – Allah knows what’s best
may you carry forth his legacy
the way you are with integrity
Honouring cousin Dr Ilmana’s hubby
