From the bottom of my heart
I thank you God 🕋
for the honey bee🐝
for all that liquid gold
that's bought and sold
It's precious honey from its tiny womb🍯
Yes Allah bless thy crispy honeycomb.
In Holy Quran honey's described
as a liquid of healing!
So in gratitude to God
I'm bowing and kneeling .🕌
And thankyou God for bleating sheep🐏'
for their soft warming fluffy wool
or the cold makes the babies weep
as they need warm clothes when cool.
Thankyou Allah for the
Mother hen
for its sizzling omelettes and scrambled eggs🥚🥚
and for delicious tikka tandoori drumstick legs!
And God alone we should be thanking
for the calf's milk that we are sharing and taking
for milkshakes, and cakes have to be baking🍼🥛🍰
And thankyou Allah for the little silkworm🐛
Silken dresses have long been the norm
Be thankful to God for deer's musk,
and chops and steaks of venison 🦌
And for roasted lamb or brie mutton 🐐🐏🥩🍖
Gratitude to God for slippery, flippery fishes🐋🐟🐠🦈🐬
for tasty succulent seafood dishes🦐
We need the omega 3 fatty acids found in fish fillets🐠
Thank Him before frying them in pans and skillets.
Thank you God for all that's a meal
From paneer cheese to grilled calf's veal
Last but not least, thank God for the myriad fruits and vegetables 🥕 🍉🍊
He alone created for our salads, these nutritious, edible eatables
So much variety of food don't partake of the haram forbidden
lest with disease you are left ailing and bedridden!🌬🛏
So thankyou Allah for all that food 🍽🕋
If we thank Him not we're ingrates rude .
