who can answer?
Part I
A sudden whirlwind
And a voice so said
Who, dark counsels
By words without knowledge?
Now questions are
To be answered!
Where were you?
During the foundations
Of earth? And tell
If you understand
Who gave it?
The dimensions?
Surely known it is
And who laid its corner stone?
Who shut the sea?
And set it doors?
The clouds and its wear?
Wrapped in dark thickness
And commanded it?
The places to approach
And no further than the marked
Can anyone ever?
Give orders to the morning?
Or show the dawn its place?
Has anyone ever?
Entered the storehouses?
Of snow? Or of the hail?
Which are for the
Times of trouble
For in days
Of war and battle
Have you ever wondered?
Why rains rain to
Water a land
Where no one lives?
Does the rain?
Have a creator? And who?
Creates the drops of dew?
And the birth to frost?
Does anyone ever?
Know the laws of above?
Have you ever?
Counted clouds?
Do you hunt?
Prey for the lioness?
Or satisfy the hunger?
Of its cubs?
Do you know who?
Provides food?
For the ravens?
When it’s young
Cry above
Part II
Do you ever know?
When Mountain Goats
Give birth?
Do you know?
The time?
They give birth?
The young ones
Grow strong
In the wilds
They leave
And do never
Return
It’s from above
That the donkeys
Were given the
Waste lands
As its home
Will ever?
The ox serve you?
And can you?
Trust it?
The wings
Of ostriches
Flaps richly
Than that
Of the stork
It lays eggs
On the ground
Let’s them warm
In the sands
Unmindful
Of foot to
Crush them
It treats it’s
Young so harsh
As if it’s
Not it’s
For the above
Never gave it
The wisdom to
Share a sense
Of being good
Yet it spreads
Its feathers
To run
Do you give?
The horse?
Its strength?
To leap?
Could you?
Laugh at fear?
Or be afraid?
Of nothing?
Or face
Swords?
As it
Could?
And it cannot
Stand still on the sounds
Of trumpets at its blow
It catches the scent
Of battle
Are hawks
Controlled by you?
Or does the eagle?
Which builds its
Nests so high
Dwelling on cliffs
Staying there
At night
From where
It looks upon
For food
And it’s young
Feast on blood
Part III
Brace yourself
There are questions
From above
And you need
To answer
Will you ever?
Discredit the justice?
Of above?
Do you have?
The strength?
As what’s above?
Can your voice?
Be as such?
The above
Looks at the proud
And brings them down
And humble them up
But
Crush the wicked
And bury
Them in dust
Some things
Are made
Initially by the
Above yet
It can also be
Approached
With sword
Can you?
Pull a
Crocodile?
With hook?
Of a fish?
Or tie?
Its tongue?
With a rope?
Or pierce?
It’s jaw?
Can you?
Make a pet?
Out of it?
Like a bird?
If you ever do
You will
Know the struggle
And will never
Do it again
Who then is?
Able to?
Stand?
The above?
Everything made
Under the above
Belongs to the above
Who can strip?
The crocodile’s limb?
Or it’s double layered
Coat of armour?
Who can?
Dare to open?
It’s mouth?
Its back has
Great shields
Tightly sealed
Its eyes
Are like
The rays
Of the dawn
Swords have
No effect on it
Nothing on earth
Is equal to it
It is a creature
Without any fear
The only answers
For all these questions
Can be only
Answered by our
One and only
God.
