Friendship (by Abdulhusain)
As I walked alone down the road
Hoping I’d find a friend,
One in whom I could confide,
And then slowly transcend .
Although surrounded by hundreds,
Not even one seemed to care,
For on that lonely road of life,
No friend could I find there.
Then I joined a group at school,
But their own friends they had,
They seemed to meet in cliques,
Which made me feel quite sad.
Now I had a different thought ,
A new direction I must take,
By becoming a friend to someone,
I’m sure a friendship I’d make.
Visiting hospitals and nursing homes,
I was made so welcome there,
Many were longing for friends,
Now, I could find friends everywhere.
About the School
With the Raza and Doa mubarak of Aqa Maula (TUS), MSB Private School made its humble beginning in 1985, in a villa in Dubai, with 20 students in the foundation stage. The vision was to foster the concept of Al Istinarat Bil Taalim-e-Islam : Secular Education with Shari’ah perspective.
