ISLAMIC POEMS

20. If You're Looking For That Good Girl

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR THAT GOOD GIRL

You won't find her in facebook

You won't find her in the mall

You won't find her as a textmate 

You won't find her like that at all.

You say you want not just any kind of girl

You say you want a beautiful good girl

But to lower your gaze is the very first step

Because good guys are good when it comes to respect.

You want to be with this new found prospect

So you decide to invite her out for a date

But that's not the right way my dear brother

Remember she is her parent's daughter.

"So if you're still looking for that good girl

Don't go chasing behind her

Rather search to find Allah first

And you're guaranteed to find her."
