Ramadan

When the crescent moon appears,
 Everyone gets ready to go to the mosque.
 The call to prayer sounds,
 Everyone performs tarawih with reverence.
 The tarawih atmosphere brings mixed feelings — 
 From children fighting over sarongs
 To playful mischief among the congregation in the mosque.

My alarm rings very loudly,
 It’s time for sahur.
 I enjoy eating a delicious meal.
 The morning call to prayer sounds,
 After praying, I recite the Qur’an.

The Maghrib call to prayer sounds,
 It’s time to break the fast.
 The kurma is sweet,
 Along with sweet and savory snacks.
 I enjoy the takjil; it is so delicious.
 Thirty days of fasting feel so joyful.
 This time will always be missed.
 I hope I can meet another Ramadan next year.
