Uqbah: An Arabic Name

Meaning “the end of everything”

                  For indeed name follow its bearer

Because he is indeed the end

Of everything positive

Not to even talk of explamaTION

Because of his endless inclinaTION

And frequent prostraTION

Succeed in all his endeavors

Charismatic and also trustworthy

Honor, culture and tradition

For they are his watchwords

These are the words of truth

 I am saying for you to benefit

There is no misleading in them

My observation, is what they contain.

I won’t drop my pen

Without paying my respect

To the other half of the duo

Though she need no formal introducTION

ZAHRAH BUHARI is known all over the naTION

Sparklingly bright and beautiful

Her beauty is beyond imaginaTION

It’s said that “Reps ipsa loquito”

FACT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF

Her Fulani accent speaks for itself

And her kindness is endless

In peace and harmony she appears

Our prayers to Baba are selfLESS

For his service to Nigeria aren’t careLESS

WE pray that Allah gives him reward that is countLESS

Forgive all his misdeeds shortcomINGS

Protect him from evil doINGS

Enrich him with  good endING

Guide him to the straight path

And admit him into Jannatul Firdausi
