In the midst of great lights
Shines a greater light, blazing with radiance
The light which illuminates other smaller and evolving light
The light which gives meaning and hope
The light which gives succor to the down trodden
Who is this Light, What is this radiance?
Many through your nurturing have found purpose
Tenderly you speak with passion stronger than your voice
One who makes the pain of others his personal headache
Mounting it on his shoulders and making them go away
Little wonder your charm grows by the day
One who the tears of others are his abomination
Leaving no stone unturned until such teary eyes bring forth comforting smiles
Who is this light, what is the radiance?
God is the giver of such gift, because He the Almighty is the giver of light
Rare is this light, which you are and we boldly say,
Abdulkarim Asuku Jamiu, you are God’s gift to humanity.
