Jamatkhana is a wonderful place
It also keeps a smile on your face!
And this smile is so wide-from ear to ear,
It makes all unhappiness disappear!
And those tasbihs that look so new,
When you use them you shine too!
To me Jamatkhana is a time of joy,
For man, woman, girl and boy!
But sometimes I wonder why people are bad,
Because it only makes dear Mowlabapa sad!
But when people are good and they pray,
It makes me want to say:
From North to South,
and East and West,
JAMATKHANA is the best!
