lyrics:
Diliges proximum tuum tamquam te ipsum
[Translation: ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself’]
Love to give!
To give is love,
And love the gift,
The gift of love.
No belief!
Without the love,
Believe in love!
The belief of love.
None of you truly believes until you love for your neighbour what you love for yourself.
[A saying of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)]
Love to give!
The gift of love,
Give the other,
All your love.
What a relief!
To give my love,
I am now you,
And you are my love!

Lyrics:
Allahumma salli ‘ala,
Sayyidina,
Muhammadin an-Nabiyyi al-ummiyyi,
Wa ‘ala alihi wa sahbihi wa sallim.
(O Allah, send your peace and blessings upon our Master Muhammad, the Unlettered Prophet, and upon his family and companions.)
O My Lord,
My sins are like
The highest mountain;
My good deeds
Are very few
They’re like a small pebble.
I turn to You
My heart full of shame,
My eyes full of tears.
Bestow Your
Forgiveness and Mercy
Upon me.
Ya Allah,
Send your peace and blessings
On the Final Prophet,
And his family,
And companions,
And those who follow him.

Lyrics:
Tonight the world will sleep
But hunger will not wait
For promises we made
We share one soul
We share one land
We have one time to understand
We are one humankind
Brothers side by side
We’ll have no regret
We will not forget
We are one humankind
Sisters side by side
We’ll have no regret
We will not forget

“Ummati” Lyrics:
Shining bright you came to us
With a heart so full of love
And you showed that you’re
The one who cares the most
And to us you’ve always been so close
Everyone will say
Please save me
Except Al-Habib (the beloved)
Chorus:
أمتي، أمتي
Ummati, Ummati
(My nation, my nation)
يقولها لنا يوم القيامة
Yaquluha lana yawmal qiyamati
(He will say to us on the Day of Judgement)
أمتي، أمتي
Ummati, Ummati
(My nation, my nation)
يقولها شفاعة
Yaquluha shafa’atan
(He will say as an intercession)
أنا لها، أنا لها
Ana laha ana laha
(“I will do it, I will do it” [to intercede to God on behalf of his nation])
You have always sacrificed
Smiled with patience through the hard times
All you did inspired everyone you knew
Always selfless, striving for the truth
Everyone will say
Please save me
Except Al-Habib (the beloved)
CHORUS
Muhammadun
I’d give my heart and soul for you
Wish my eyes can see your face and be close to you
Coz in your guidance I find peace of mind indeed
No on else on that day can intercede

One light, one hope
One heart, one soul
One chance to know
One time to go
There’s just one call from my heart
It pulls me to a world apart
There’s just one word that I hear
One drum, that calls me near
When the spring has been unwound
What is lost will soon be found
To the call that comes from inside you
To the light that shines just to find you
Go
To the drum that beats from inside you
To the one that’s calling to find you
Go
I know, know I must go, go
I know, know I must go, go
I must go
One light, one hope
One heart, one soul
One chance to know
One time to go
In the mirror you stare
Your eyes are calling me there
Your friend has taken my hand
Guides me beyond any land
If you’re far I’ll soon be near
What is faint will soon be clear
To the call that comes from inside you
To the light that shines just to find you
Go
To the drum that beats from inside you
To the one that’s calling to find you
Go
I know, know I must go, go
I know, know I must go, go
I must go
One light, one hope
One heart, one soul
One chance to know
One time to go
On to the drum
To the voice of the one
I must go, I must follow the
Spark that lights us all
Illuminated by the call
With one heart, with one hope I will
Go, go, I must go, go
I know, know, I must go, go
I must go
And I know, know I must go, go
I know, know I must go, go

Everyday is a lesson
And everything you do
Defines yourself
Now I know we all have good intentions
Different ways we have to cope with stress
But for me its easy
Cause I know he sees me
But for me its easy
Cause I know he sees me
Now I know you are kind of scared now
I can see it all in your face
For every trial and tribulation
There will be a save and grace
Allah will never burden
With more than you can bare
How can you reach the heavens
Without going through the test
For me its easy
Cause I know he sees me
For me its easy
Cause I know he sees me
I know the roads keep getting longer
And everytime you stop you losing faith
No

But those are the ones
You need to solve yourself

My heart is so full of longing
I wish to be close to my Beloved
I dream to walk in the streets of Medina
And to quench the thirst of my spirit
By visiting you O Muhammad!

As I entered your Mosque so gently
And as I finally stood there before you
I couldn’t stop my tears from falling
In your presence O Muhammad!
Chorus
O Taiba your breeze is so blessed
Indeed it brought life back to my spirit
I’ve left my heart with my beloved
Sending blessings on Muhammad

Be like the sun
Shining with light
Be like a rose
Spreading its fragrance
In every path
Be like the earth
Humble and wise
Be like the rain
Pouring all your love
To every soul
Stop speculating and guessing
Trust what your heart is sensing
Every new breath is a blessing
Sent by Allah
Inspire people with your manners
Dedicate your life to helping others
If you don’t know them they’re still not strangers
All other humans are your brothers
Stop speculating and guessing
Trust what your heart is sensing
Every new breath is a blessing
Sent by Allah
Why do we chase after material possessions?
Do we really think that it will bring us pleasure?
Don’t think contentment comes from having wealth
None of it will delay our moment of death
Peace and happiness are in worshipping Allah

A moment you’ll always treasure
Let’s ask Allah to make your love
Last forever
Chorus:
Let’s raise our hands
And make du’a
Like the Prophet taught us
And with one voice let’s all say
Baraka Allahu lakuma

(May Allah bless everything for you two
And shower His blessings upon the two of you
And may he bring you together
In everything that is good)
From now you’ll share all your joys
Through hardship support each other
Together worshipping Allah
Seeking His pleasure
We pray that He will fill your life
With happiness and blessings
And grant you kids who’ll make your home
Filled with laughter

Pearl:
As an album ‘The Centre’ takes us through a spiritual journey. ‘The Pearl’ is at the heart of this journey,
the hidden beauty that is revealed once we peel back these layers of self discovery.
Lying in darkness at the bottom of a deep ocean, protected by a hard shell,
The Pearl is waiting for anyone with the determination and patience to find it.

lyrics:
I spent a thousand sleepless nights
In wait of dreams I could not find
I walked a thousand empty roads
In search of signs to bring me home
With every breath I spoke your name
And heard it rolling in the waves
Beneath a veil of ocean blue
I broke illusion from the truth
You said, walk to me and I’ll find you
Call me and I’ll show you
Hiding like a pearl for you
To heal and guide you
From deep inside you
Hiding like a pearl for you
Music
And from the pulse beneath my skin
You called me to a source within
Where every layer revealed one more
A secret brighter than before
And at the heart there lay just one
The root of all that I’d become
I watched the surface start to break
Free of form, free of shape.
You said, walk to me and I’ll run to you
Call me and I’ll show you
Hiding like a pearl for you
To heal and guide you
From deep inside you
Hiding like a pearl for you.

“By My Side” Lyrics:-
Sometimes I can’t see
Where I’m supposed to go
Sometimes I speed up,
When I should take it slow
But through all my hard times
When I lose my way
You’re concealing my mistakes, yeah!
Pre-Chorus:
I know You’re always by my side
Never turning out Your light
When I need You most Your stars will shine
Chorus:
When I’m out there in the darkest place
Worn and tired
I can still see You illuminate
All my skies
When it feels like I’ve fallen too far from You
There You, there You, there You are
Guiding me through
Whenever I feel down
You can lift me up
Turning my life around
With Your love
No matter how rough it gets
I can wear a smile
‘Cause Your mercy never dries
I know You’re always by my side
Never turning out Your light
When I need You most Your stars will shine
PRE-CHORUS & CHORUS
Ain’t nobody, no no nobody
That knows me like You do
Ain’t nobody who makes me feel this way
Got no worries, no no worries
About anything
Cause I know You’re always there, oh

How beautiful, is this worldly life
But not a soul shall remain
We all come into this world
Only to leave it one day
I can see that everything around me
Rises then fades away
Life is just a passing moment
Nothing is meant to stay, oh
[Chorus:]
This worldly life has an end
And it’s then real life begins
A world where we will live forever
This beautiful worldly life has an end
It’s a just bridge that must be crossed
To a life that will go on forever
So many years, quickly slipping by
Like the Sleepers of the Cave
Wake up and make a choice
Before we end up in our graves
O God! You didn’t put me here in vain
I know I’ll be held accountable for what I do
This life is just a journey
And it’s taking me back to You
[Chorus:]
This worldly life has an end
And it’s then real life begins
A world where we will live forever
This beautiful worldly life has an end
It’s a just bridge that must be crossed
To a life that will go on forever
So many get caught in this beautiful web
Its gardens become an infatuation
But surely they’ll understand at the final stop
That its gardens are meant for cultivation, oh
[Chorus:]
This worldly life has an end
And it’s then real life begins
A world where we will live forever
This beautiful worldly life has an end
It’s a just bridge that must be crossed
To a life that will go on forever
How beautiful, is this worldly life
But not a soul shall remain
We all come into this world
Only to leave it one day
I can see that everything around me
Rises then fades away
Life is just a passing moment
Nothing is meant to stay, oh

To a life that will go on forever
So many get caught in this beautiful web
Its gardens become an infatuation
But surely they’ll understand at the final stop
That its gardens are meant for cultivation, oh
[Chorus:]
This worldly life has an end
And it’s then real life begins
A world where we will live forever
This beautiful worldly life has an end
It’s a just bridge that must be crossed
To a life that will go on forever

Oohh… Oohh.
Oh you, Came in to this life
Brought up as an orphan child
Through a time of deep despair, O Muhammad!
Your days at work began
As a fair and honest man
You showed just how much you cared
And one night in that cave
When the Archangel came
And your life in this world
Would never be the same
Rasool’Allah, Habib’Allah
Your light is always showing me the way

I’m longing for the day I see your face
Oohh.
You brighten up my day

And in my heart you’ll stay

With every breath I take
Oohh…
I’ll never leave your way
Eyes that could light up any soul
You became the Chosen One
To proclaim the world of God, O Muhammad!
In the brightness of the Sun
Or the Stillness of the night
You would never ever stop
Being kind, Giving Hope
And serenity and love
To a divided world
That didn’t have enough

Mamma – Lyrics:
Every time I think of you
You always make me smile
Whenever I feel down
You know how to cheer me up
And every time I feel confused
And I don’t know which way to choose
One thing’s for sure
I can always count on you
When I am near or when I’m far
Or when I’m completely lost
In my heart I have no fear
‘Cause you’re my guiding star, oh
Chorus:
Mamma you know that I love you
No matter what I say or do
I can never thank you, oh
Mamma you know that I love you
You are the proof of what love can do
Truly you are God’s miracle, oh
You’re my shelter from the rain
You’re the shoulder I cry on
And whenever I feel pain
One touch from you and the pain is gone
And all I’ve ever dreamed to be
Is to make you proud of me
‘Cause never once
Did you turn your back on me
Your healing words, your tender touch
The warmth of your embrace
The beauty of your soul
Shine through your loving face, oh
CHORUS
Your name was the first word I’ve ever spoken
You held my hand through the first steps I’ve taken, oh
When I wasn’t well you watched me through the night
That is why Paradise is under your feet, oh

“One Day” Lyrics:
Lying here wide awake on my own now
Silence is the loudest cry
I’m safe but I’ve lost everything I’ve known
I can smile because the pain has gone
But cry because it’s where I’m from
O God I turn to You to make me strong again, oh
Chorus:
One day I can reach that rainbow
Watch the sweet reflection
Shining off my first home
I’d give anything to see my family again
And say how much I love them
That’s all I imagine
One day
I wish I could go back tomorrow
If it’s only for just one second
Put warmth back into a town that’s frozen
I can smile because the pain has gone
But cry because it’s where i’m from
O God I turn to You to make me strong again
CHORUS
I have cried so many times
And all those tears have washed my eyes
Now I see clearly into the light
‘Cause I believe
I know one day I’ll be home again
To start a new life, with peace everywhere
Right from the start until the end
I believe that one day
I can reach that rainbow
One day, one day
I believe that one day
One day

I know that You could easily
Take away every thing You’ve given me
And I try to remember

By my side, I wish to be close
Close to You throughout my life

I do forget that my last breath could be the last
Forgive me ’cause I can’t thank you enough
Forgive me when I doubt your love

Free yourself and
Say what’s true
Be Yourself though
You may be few
You can see straight into my soul
You know in hardship I change my goal
Now I realize
I was so unwise
Abandoned your advice
Face with your trial
Help was always near
If we persevered
If we held up just for a while
My life is empty without you
Nothing I’ve gained is without you
If you are pleased
My soul can breathe
Where would I be without you?
My heart now flees
These wordly dream
Yearning for mercy from you
Now I Realize
I was so unwise
Abandoned with your advice
Face with your trial
Help was always near

If we held up just for a while

Standing firm together against oppression holding hands
It doesn’t matter where you’re from
Or if you’re young, old, women or man
We’re here for the same reason; we want to take back our land
Oh God thank you.

No more being prisoners in our homes
No more being afraid to talk
Our dream is just to be free, just to be free
Now when we’ve taking our first step
Towards a life of complete freedom

Oh God thank you.

And it makes me strong to see everyone
Standing together holding hands in unity
Shouting out loud demanding their right for freedom

Freedom ( Forgive Me Album ) – Maher Zain
DESCRIPTION:
‘Karitas’ is a spellbinding new composition by acclaimed British musician Sami Yusuf.
It was recorded live at the Holland Festival in June 2022 and delivered with
exceptional artistry by Cappella Amsterdam,
the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra & the composer’s own ensemble.
The work moves with intelligence and fluidity from Western choral music
to Middle Eastern modes to the cadence of Andalusia.
Modes traverse boundaries from the distinctive Bayati Shiraz
and Rast maqams to the aeolian. Subtly flowing rhythms & improvisation,
entrancing solos on the Chinese erhu, oud, ney, violin,
underscore the depth of the dialogue among traditions taking place here.
Lyrics by Fuzuli, a 16th c. Azerbaijani writer known as a poet of divine love,
are echoed here in the words of the 12th c. German mystic Hildegard of Bingen.
Intoxicatingly beautiful mawwals take verses from
the Andalusian poet Abul Hasan al-Shushtari (13th c.) and
Abd al-Ghani al-Nabulsi, a 17th c. Syrian writer.

Lyrics:
It’s so hard to explain
What I’m feeling
But I guess it’s ok
Cause I’ll keep believing
There’s something deep inside
Something that’s calling
It’s calling you and I
It’s taking us up high
Healing, a simple act of kindness bring such meaning
A smile can change a life let’s start believing
And feeling, let’s start healing
Heal and you will be healed
Break every border
Give and you will receive
It’s nature’s order
There is a hidden force
Pulling us closer
It’s pulling you and I
It’s pulling us up high to…
Healing, a simple act of kindness brings such meaning
A smile can change a life lets start believing
And feeling, let’s start healing
Hearts in the hand of another heart and in God’s hand are all hearts
An eye takes care of another eye and from God’s eye nothing hides
Seek only to give and you’ll receive
So, heal and you will be healed

Seek only to give and you’ll receive
So, heal and you will be healed

You are a miracle
You are a blessing from above
You brought joy to my soul
And pleasure to my eyes
In my heart I can feel it
An unexplainable feeling
Being a father
The best thing that I could ever ask for
Just thinking of you makes me smile
Holding you, looking in your eyes
I’m so grateful for having you
And everyday I pray
I pray that you’ll find your way
You know I love you, I love you
My little girl, my little girl
I ask God to bless you, and protect you always
My little girl, my little girl
You’re like a shining star
So beautiful you are
My baby girl
You light up my world
I pray that I’ll get the chance
To be around and watch you grow
And witness your first steps
And the first time when you will call me “dad”
Just thinking of you makes me smile
Holding you, looking in your eyes
I’m so grateful for having you
And everyday I pray
I pray that you’ll find your way
You know I love you, I love you
My little girl, my little girl
I ask God to bless you, and protect you always
My little girl, my little girl
I could spend hours watching you
You’re so innocent, so wonderful and pure
O God I can not express my gratitude
But I’ll raise her good, ‘cause all I want is to please You
And now I pray You’ll guide her steps forever
You know I love you, I love you
My little girl, my little girl
I ask God to bless you, and protect you always
My little girl, my little girl
You are a miracle
You are a blessing from above
You brought joy to my soul
And pleasure to my eyes
In my heart I can feel it
An unexplainable feeling
Being a father
The best thing that I could ever ask for
Just thinking of you makes me smile
Holding you, looking in your eyes
I’m so grateful for having you
And everyday I pray

You know I love you, I love you

And witness your first steps
And the first time when you will call me “dad”

You know I love you, I love you

Lyrics:
O People!
In a hut made of tin and clay
A small boy dreams away
Of clean water and a meal a day
And not to fear mines as he plays each day
O People!
Somewhere dark and out of the way
AIDS has found yet another prey
To save his life he just couldn’t pay
Tell me what we’re going to do
For our brothers in Durban,
For our sisters in Darfur,
Show me what we’re going to do
Are we just going to sit there,
Nice and cowzy on our armchairs?
Will we not even make a prayer (2x)?
You might ask yourself:
“Why should I help these people?”
They’ll tell you why:
“We’re not so different from you.
We have dreams just like you,
But they were buried with the
Bodies of our loved ones.”
O People!
Are we dead, dumb, and blind?
What is going through our minds?
Don’t we care for the rest of mankind?
O People!
We claim to love peace and justice
Why do we preach but we don’t practice?
Let’s help them out of this darkness
Tell me what we’re going to do
For our brothers in Ethiopia,
For our sisters in Rwanda,
Show me what we’re going to do,
Are we just going to sit there
Nice and cozy on our armchairs?
Will we not even make a prayer (4x)?

“Close To You” Lyrics:
I’m sitting here on this mountain
I’m thinking about Your creation
It’s so beautiful out here
A symphony of nature
Oh oh, it’s taking my breath away
I’m so blessed out here today
Chorus:
Allahu, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah
I see the sun, the stars, the moon
I join them all in praising You
Allahu, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah
I feel alive and I feel so good
I feel so close, so close to You
Looking out at the ocean
That makes us blue to the Universe
Wish I could see the world from space
SubhanAllah The Creator
Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah
Oh oh, and it’s taking my breath away
I’m so thankful I can say, just say…
CHORUS
And everywhere I look around me
Your creation’s so wonderful
And the more that think about it
Makes me love You even more
How the river finds the way to the valley
Is just so magical
And the way the night turns into day
It’s a miracle!
Oh, I love it!

La ilaha illa Allah
(There is no god but Allah)
لا إله إلا الله
He created the plants and trees
He created the birds and bees
He created the oceans and seas
Some of His many bounties
He made us on earth trustees
To obey all His decrees
Oh Allah have mercy please,
Clean away our hearts’ disease
[Chorus]
Jalla Allahu fi ‘oulah
(Glorified is Allah in His loftiness)
جل الله في علاه
Ma lana rabbun siwah
(We have no lord but He)
مالنا رب سواه
La ilaha illa Allah
لا إله إلا الله
Awwalun qablal wujud
(He is the First before existence)
أول قبل الوجود
Akhirun Ba’dal khulud
(He is the Last after eternity)
آخر بعد الخلود
Mutlaqun ‘anil hudud
(Absolute is He above any limits)
مطلق عن الحدود
Wajibun lahus sujud
(Obligatory it is to prostrate to Him)
واجب له السجود
Rabbun wahibul hayah
(The Lord who bestows life)
رب واهب الحياة
Mujrir rihi wal miyah
(He makes the wind and water surge)
مجري الريح والمياة
Fadhat binnada yadah
(His blessings are overflowing)
فاضت بالندى يداه
Tuba lilladhi hadah
(Successful is he whom He guides)
طوبى للذي هداه
[Chorus]
He gave the day and night
He gave us our sense sight
He created the sun so bright
And the moon so pure and white
He saved from our plight
He led us towards the light
He led us to the straight path
Through his mercy and his might
[Chorus]
Lord of the earth and the sky
Lord the mountains so high
Lord of the day and the night
Lord of joy and delight
