Theme
Caravan of Light
From every side, they come, they unite,
Walking, running, with hearts alight,
Answering the call of the caravan of light.
Awakened as seeds in a garden made alive
With Allah’s grace, the hearts took bloom,
A garden of love in summer’s room.
Day by day, with mercy and care,
The caravan flourished in warmth so rare.
Threads of hope and faith entwined,
A tapestry of hearts combined.
From tender lambswool, soft yet strong,
Woven together where they belong.
Fragrance of hope on the summer breeze,
Whispers of faith through the swaying trees.
Hands held firm to Allah’s rope,
Bound by love, alive with hope.
In the caravan's glow, hearts found their place,
Resilience forged in light and grace.
Standing as one, unwavering and bright,
Rejuvenated in the garden of light.
Fragility fades, their strength takes flight,
As they journey forth in the caravan of light.
