The Brightest Star

On the day you were born it was like a new star in the sky, the brightest ever star,

The day we said goodbye, a light went out on earth for me you are now very far.

But your soul went up to the skies and lit up the heavens,

You are always in my memory, your lovely star will forever shine.

Always remember a dad is a hero, a safe place who carries our worries and carries our weight,

Appreciate what dads do before it is too late.

A dad is there when problems need solving,

When dad is around you are constantly changing and evolving.

Always there for support and to give you a pat on the back,

Dads never turn a blind eye, but always keep you on the right track.

Eleven years on… Nazirahmed Daud Satia (Allah elevate his status).

From a Proud Son…

Seven Years Today… NazirAhmed Daud Satia (Allah drench him in His mercy)

“The debt of people will be one day be repaid, the debt of your father can never be repaid.”

The world lost a gentleman of the very first degree,
A brave, noble, humble man, I’m sure you’ll all agree
.


He did not win a peace prize, did not cure the common cold,
He did not defend his country, he did not accumulate wealth and gold
.


More than that he was my dad, a leader, a loving friend,
A father to be proud of, a fighter ’til the end.

From a proud son…

Ismail ibn Nazir Satia (one who is in dire need of Allah’s forgiveness, mercy and pleasure)
