It is only a tiny rosebud,A flower of Allah's design;But I cannot unfold the petals,
with these clumsy hands of mine.
The secret of unfolding flowersis not known to such as I.Allah opens this flower so sweetly,When in my hands they die.
If I cannot unfold a rosebud,This flower of Allah’s design,Then how can I have the wisdomto unfold this life of mine?
So I'll trust in Him for leadingeach moment of my day.I will look to him for His guidanceeach step of the pilgrim way.
The pathway that lies before me,Only ALLAH knows.I'll trust Him to unfold the moments,Just as He unfolds the rose.
