Poem written by brother Sadiq Daamani on Imam Al Ridha entitled: Ya Ali Ridha
Ya Ali-arRidha, Ya ghareeb-al-ghuraba,
Labbayk ya Imami Ya Ali-arRidha
O stranger of the land although no stranger to my heart,
Distance is but a number so we’ll never be apart,
I’ve only just found you but you’ve been with me from the start,
Of the perfect lineage, you’re that eighth piece of the art
Ya Ali-arRidha, Ya ghareeb-al-ghuraba,
Labbayk ya Imami Ya Ali-arRidha
For many years I have been searching for my heart’s true home,
A resting place of a man who was initially alone,
It called out to me, as around the streets I used to roam,
And then I saw the beauty of this golden shining dome
Ya Ali-arRidha, Ya ghareeb-al-ghuraba,
Labbayk ya Imami Ya Ali-arRidha
One u-pon a time you were a man who was so lonely,
A man devoted to the holy Lord for company,
But now look how the times have no changed, so completely,
Millions go to your grave to say/ salaam to you daily
Ya Ali-arRidha, Ya ghareeb-al-ghuraba,
Labbayk ya Imami Ya Ali-arRidha
You taught me the importance of family relations,
The fact that your sister is a queen of all the nations,
A sister to complement your ultimate creation,
And may I be of those with you in heaven’s station
