Our Little Two, A Birthday Poem

Dear Zahra,

Hey beautiful, it's your birthday today

Get up, make a wish and blow the candles away
How thankful we are as we watch you grow
Getting smarter and taller from head to toe

Those nursery-rhymes you love to sing
Along with the giggle and dance, such a gorgeous thing
Playing with Mama's ring and holding it tight
Helps you feel calm and sleep well at night

How you enjoy going outside and happily play
Or those TV shows that stole your day
From Mickey, Upin and Upsy Daisy Doo
To Elmo and Chuggington that goes choo choo

Can't help smiling when you follow Bapak to pray
Standing right beside him, trying to copy what Bapak say
When you grow up, inshaAllah you’ll fluently recite the Qur’an
Be just like what your name means, Azzahra, The Shining One

In Allah's protection and kindness, may you always be blessed
We can only pray and guide for all your best
Happy birthday dear princess, our Little Two
We love you so much, hugs and kisses for you

Love,
Mama & Bapak
