Mama, Please Be Sweet With Your Daughter

Mama realizes she's getting older.

The story that the years have told is known to her.

She is aware of her age and the time.

So, don't mention it to her each time.


Every day, she witnesses her pals getting hitched,

They observe their kids enjoying themselves while they are playing.

She sees the gown, the jewelry, and the photographs.

And occasionally questions, "When will my turn come around?"


Perhaps when someone requests her name, she grins,

"Are you married yet?" The question has the same sound.

But behind that grin, there might be agony,

Once more, she might be praying and waiting.


Mom, don't compare her to anyone else.

She is your precious daughter.

Someone got married when they were 22 years old.

The same doesn't have to occur to you, though.


God is aware of the way, and life has a period.

He is aware of the day as well as the night.

It's true that marriage is gorgeous.

However, it has to occur when the timing is right.


Perhaps she longs for a house of her own,

Having children and a loving spouse of her own.

When she is alone, she might say a silent prayer,

Imploring God to grant her a dwelling.


She could cry when no one else is around,

I'm curious about her future.

"Lord, when will my story start?" she might wonder.

She asked herself questions covertly.


So, Mama, be kind, be affectionate, and kind,

Give her some calm and comfort in her mind.

Don't make her think she's failed.

She hasn't had the marriage she desires yet.


Her age is not a cause for shame,

Her name isn't diminished by being unmarried.

She is still your kid, bright and dear,

Nonetheless deserving of admiration, esteem, and enjoyment.


Why isn't she married? are the questions that people ask.

Don't let their statements cause your heart to be concerned.

There's no need for you to describe her life to the crowd.

Simply stand next to her and earn her respect.


Instead of asking, "When will you marry?"

Inquire, "My daughter, how are you? Are you joyful?"

give her prayer instead of pressure,

Tell her that you'll always be there for her.


Keep her near when the waiting seems protracted,

Make her remember that she is gorgeous and powerful.

Say to her, "My kid, you are not a mistake.

Your future is yours; let God open the door. "


because Allah knows what the heart is unable to see.

He is aware of what is finest and what is intended.

He has written marriage in her narrative, therefore,

It will arrive in splendor at the designated hour.


Marriage isn't a race to win.

And what others have done does not determine how one lives.

Another may wait, while one may get married young.

Everyone, however, passes through a different gate.


Therefore, don't exacerbate her suffering, dear Mama.

Avoid turning her wait into humiliation.

Be her light, her comfort, her refuge,

Feel good about yourself.


When you kneel low, remember her.

Please pray that God would lead her wherever she goes.

Encourage her when her heart is failing,

She longs for love and serenity; give them to her.


And if the waiting becomes difficult to tolerate,

Remind her that she is loved and cherished.

She is not valued because of her wedding ring,

Nor in the kids that marriage might produce.


So, Mama, handle your baby gently.

Love is the message you should offer to her world.

"My daughter, you are never ashamed," tell her.

In any case, you are still my love, my joy, and my pride. "


Her tale is still being meticulously written,

Hope persists, and prayer is still possible.

And when her magnificent moment eventually arrives,

She will understand that she was never alone after reflection.


Let your love lead her until that day,

Be by her side and offer gentle support.

because occasionally the finest present you can offer

Tell her she is cherished and deserving of existence. ❤️
