I knelt to pray but not for long,I had too much to do
I had to hurry and get to work, for bills would soon be due
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer, and jumped up off my knees
My Muslim duty was now done, my soul could rest at ease
All day long I had no time, to spread a word of cheer
No time to speak of Allah to friends, they'd laugh at me I'd fear
No time, no time, too much to do, That was my constant cry
No time to give to souls in need But at last the time, the time to die
I went before the Lord, I came, I stood with downcast eyes
For in his hands God held a book; It was the book of life
God looked into his book and said 'Your name I cannot find'
I once was going to write it down ... But never found the time'
