Forever Queen

In tears we saw you sinking
And watched you fade away
Our hearts were almost shattered
We wanted you to stay
But we saw you sleeping
So peaceful, free from pain
How could we wish you back with us
To suffer that again
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you did not go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God took you home

If roses grow in heaven
God please pick a bunch for me
Please replace them in my Grandmothers' arms
And tell her they're from me
Tell her I love her and I miss her
and when she turns smile
chant may mercy of Allah rain upon you
and hold her for awhile
Because remembering her is easy
I do it everyday
but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away

Don't think of her as gone away
Her journey's just begun
Life holds so many facets
This earth is only one
Just think of her is resting
From the sorrows and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days and years
Think how she must be wishing
That we could know, today
Now nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away
And think of her as living
In the hearts of those she touched
For nothing loved is ever lost
And she is loved so very much
