What did I do today?

Oh the moon has come
The day is done
The night has covered up the sun.
I have stood so often before you to pray
But I wonder God, tell me, what did I do today?
Did I remember the words of my prays?
Did I take time to thank you for all that I have?
Did I call on you to guide my way?
Tell me, what did I do today?
I has whispered to you
As I made my wishes.
But was my faith
Bright or grey?
Oh God, tell me, what did I do today?
Did I smile at my brother?
Was I kind to my mother?
Did I teach another something that I know
Or did my love of this world lead me astray?
Tell me, what did I do today?
Though I've bowed to you
with my face in the dust,
Did I turn to you
And did I obey?
Oh God, tell me, what did I do today?
Did I use my mind?
Did I use my time?
If I search my heart what will I find?
The light of your guidance is a glimmering ray,
Tell me, what did I do toady?
Oh God, tell me, what did I do today?
/ A beautiful Nasheed for the evening...
