Lyrics:
They filled my path full of doubt
And wouldn’t hear me out
But still I chased my dreams
They told me to quit
But my heart could not resist
And from the darkness came a light
I will shine on tomorrow
Light the way for all to follow
From the darkness I will shine
Learning from the past I tried
To stare the world in the eyes
Find strength to pull me through
I saw through my tests and trials
A road that ran a thousand miles
At the end was only truth
I will shine on tomorrow
Light the way for all to follow
In the darkness I will shine
I will shine on forever
Take my chance now or never
In the darkness I will shine
I know I can if I believe
And I will choose my destiny
We’ll make the change we want to see
I know we can if we believe
And we will choose our destiny
I know I can if I believe

Lyrics:
What goes through your mind?
As you sit there looking at me
Well I can tell from your looks
That you think I’m so oppressed
But I don’t need for you to liberate me
My head is not bare
And you can’t see my covered hair
So you sit there and you stare
And you judge me with your glare
You’re sure I’m in despair
But are you not aware
Under this scarf that I wear
I have feelings, and I do care
CHORUS:
So don’t you see?
That I’m truly free
This piece of scarf on me
I wear so proudly
To preserve my dignity…
My modesty
My integrity
So don’t judge me
Open your eyes and see…
“Why can’t you just accept me?” she says
“Why can’t I just be me?” she says
Time and time again
You speak of democracy
Yet you rob me of my liberty
All I want is equality
Why can’t you just let me be free?
For you I sing this song
My sister, may you always be strong
From you I’ve learnt so much
How you suffer so much
Yet you forgive those who laugh at you
You walk with no fear
Through the insults you hear
Your wish so sincere
That they’d understand you
But before you walk away
This time you turn and say:
But don’t you see?
That I’m truly free
This piece of scarf on me
I wear so proudly
To preserve my dignity
My modesty
My integrity
So let me be
She says with a smile
I’m the one who’s free

Free (Percussion Version) – Sami Yusuf
DESCRIPTION:
Composer Sami Yusuf’s mastery of musical languages dazzles in ‘L’Amour Vivant’.
The initial movement unfolds within the intricate geometry of the Baroque style,
a form that was imprinted on the composer’s soul during his upbringing in London
and that remains a cherished inspiration. From the start we hear the subtle
meeting of musical paths in the Arabic baladi rhythm that underlies the graceful melody.
The transition into the second movement transports the listeners to the heart of Sami Yusuf’s
other musical heritage, immersing them in the Central Asian Azerbaijani world.
The third movement revisits the Baroque sound before incorporating
the rich tonalities and nuanced rhythms of the Middle East and Persia,
seamlessly blending them into a sweeping soundscape.
The meditative sounds of the West African kora and the sensuous tones of the Chinese erhu then follow.
The final movement acts as a love letter to the world classical traditions encapsulated here,
skillfully weaving together the myriad emotions experienced throughout this journey in sound.
‘L’Amour Vivant’ is one of Sami Yusuf’s compositions from the second concert of his ‘When Paths Meet’ series.
It features The Sami Yusuf Ensemble, The Scoring Orchestra of Paris, The Métaboles,
and stellar soloists and specialist musicians in a stunning collaboration.
‘L’Amour Vivant’ is classical crossover at its most innovative.
Performed at the Paris Philharmonic.

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:
The high heavens exalt Your Name,
from which all names take their grace.
Timeless glories mark out Your reign,
from Your lofty dwelling place.
Understanding, bounteous One,
eternal gift of plenty;
omniscient, just and divine,
our Judge in all Your glory.
سبحت باسمك المجيد السماء
وتسامت باسمك الأسماء
يا عظيماً يا حليماً وفرداً
من عطاياك دامت الآلاء
You give breeze to the wheeling birds
Sustained high up in the sky,
as You nurture us here on earth.
In Your warmth we glorify.
You sent messengers to us, Lord,
Revealing Your word and light.
You taught the scale above the sword,
Your justice is all men’s right.
عندها نرتجي من الله عفواً
حين يأتي محمد واللواء
فاجعل المصطفى شفيعاً وكن لي
غافراً ذاك مطلبي والرجاء
We seek the mercy of God.
I beg, Prophet, speak for me!
Led by Mohammed’s great banner,
Your forgiveness is my plea.

Let us not forget
Who we are, whence we came, where we shall go.
Let us not forget
We have now fallen and forgotten who we are.
Wandering on earth with no compass in hand.
But we can remember, we can remember.
Let us not forget that although cast in this lowly world
Let us not forget
Although blinded by veils of neglect and heedlessness.
We are placed here on earth to remember
To remember who we really are as we make this journey of earthly life.

Lyrics:
Swing across the seven skies
They say a pure heart never lies
The words you learned were never heard
It’s time to think and wonder why
The stars above will always be
A shining guide for us to see
And when I doubt, I’ll have no doubt
But still I wonder why
Digging through our pages past
Wondering how the truth will last
God’s in control is what I found
I think I’ll try this time around!
And no one really feels the path I seek, and
No one’s going to care as much as me, and
No one seems to know our history, and
Stories are told for the world to see!
CHORUS
And maybe I’ll find the path I seek tonight
Let it be! Only God really knows what’s right!
Maybe, I’ll find the path I seek tonight
Let it be! Only God really knows I tried!
The heroes of our past unfold
Their glory is unique we’re told
Their stories mark a precious past
But do we question why?
A quest for truth can never be
A light I’ve faked inside of me
I’ll walk in shoes I’ve never felt
Only then I’ll sure know why!
They tell me “Just make up your mind!”
The path I seek just needs a sign
The end is where I want to be
Which way I go is up to me!
And no one really feels the path I seek, and
No one’s going to care as much as me, and
No one seems to know our history, and
Stories are told for the world to see!
CHORUS
And maybe I’ll find the path I seek tonight
Let it be! Only God really knows what’s right!
Maybe, I’ll find the path I seek tonight
Let it be! Only God really knows I tried!
And I know that it hurts
When we stop and wonder: “Why?”
Yes I know that it hurts
Maybe time will heal the burns
And maybe you’ve felt the path I seek, and
I know you’ve cared as much as me
Our stories were shared for us to see, and
Perhaps it’s best to part and be!
CHORUS
And maybe I’ll find the path I seek tonight
Let it be! Only God really knows what’s right!
Maybe, I’ll find the path I seek tonight
Let it be! Only God really knows I tried!

Lyrics:
Swing across the seven skies
They say a pure heart never lies
The words you learned were never heard
It’s time to think and wonder why
The stars above will always be
A shining guide for us to see
And when I doubt, I’ll have no doubt
But still I wonder why
Digging through our pages past
Wondering how the truth will last
God’s in control is what I found
I think I’ll try this time around!
And no one really feels the path I seek, and
No one’s going to care as much as me, and
No one seems to know our history, and
Stories are told for the world to see!

And maybe I’ll find the path I seek tonight
Let it be! Only God really knows what’s right!

Lyrics:
Now I see
The truth in me
A never-ending greed
Blinded by my own deeds
So true what to say
We know but we play
But today I will say
If you turn me away
To who else can I pray
Your signs awake me
From my sleep
Your tests of pain
That go so deep
But without your light
I couldn’t realize
How far I had strayed
My blackened heart
With a thousand marks
So blind to your ways
If you turn me away
To who else can I pray
‘Chorus’
Ya Mawlana
Ya KArim
Ya GHafiradh-dhambi
Ya Rahim
“Oh my Lord,
Oh Generous one!
Oh forgiver of sin,
Oh Most Merciful One!”
Dallalat-nid-durubu
Wal-ana-a’ud
“Roads of life have lead me astray
And now I come back”
Askarat-nidh-dhunubu
Wal-ana atub
“Sins have made me blind
And now I turn to you in regret”
Ji’tuka ta’iba
La taruddani Kha’iba
“I have come to you seeking forgiveness
Don’t send me away saddened”
If you turn me away
To who else can I pray

Lyrics:
[Verse 1: Akon]
I was running away from myself
Had a barrel inside of my head
I was lying awake in my bed
Thinking ’bout all the things I should have said
[Pre-Chorus: Akon]
But now I’m stronger, I’m so much stronger
No more running, not any longer
And now I’m stronger, and finally I can say
That I’m not afraid, yeah
[Chorus: Akon]
I’m gonna break the silence
Cut like a laser through the dark
I’m gonna light a fire
Cause I’m not afraid, no
I’m gonna fight the triads
They are no chains around my heart
I’m gonna light a fire
Cause I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, don’t be afraid, I’m not afraid
[Verse 2: Akon]
Wish that you could be here with me now
I’ve overcome the demons inside, yeah
I keep hearing your voice late at night
Telling me, gotta fight for your right
[Pre-Chorus: Akon]
But now I’m stronger, I’m so much stronger
No more running, not any longer
And now I’m stronger, and finally I can say
That I’m not afraid, yeah
[Chorus: Akon]
I’m gonna break the silence
Cut like a laser through the dark
I’m gonna light a fire
Cause I’m not afraid, no
I’m gonna fight the triads
They are no chains around my heart
I’m gonna light a fire
Cause I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, don’t be afraid
[Bridge: RedOne]
No, they can’t hold me down
Seen it rising up from the ground
No, they can’t hold me down
Seen it rising up from the ground
Can’t hold me down
Can’t hold me down
Can’t hold me down
Can’t hold me down
[Chorus: Akon]
I’m a warrior, oh mama, I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, don’t be afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, I’m not afraid

One big family – Lyrics:
I wonder why you and me fight each other
Don’t you see the similarities between us?
Take a minute and see yourself in the mirror
You look like me: those eyes, lips – you can’t deny
Have you thought about
Why we look the same?
Why we feel the same?
Don’t tell me it’s by chance
Oh, you’re my brother
You’re my sister
We’re one big family
Oh, you’re my brother
You’re my sister
Just one big family
It doesn’t matter if you live far away from me
You feel I feel, you bleed I bleed, you cry and I cry
We sleep and dream
Sometimes we’re sad, sometimes we’re happy
You breathe I breathe
We love, walk, talk and we smile
Have you thought about
Why we look the same?
Why we feel the same?
Don’t tell me it’s by chance
Oh, you’re my brother
You’re my sister
We’re one big family
Oh, you’re my brother
You’re my sister
Just one big family
I care about you
And I wish you could realize
There’s no difference between us two
We’re part of one family
No matter how far you are
And even if we don’t know each other
Oh, you and me, me and you, we are one
Oh, you’re my brother
You’re my sister
We’re one big family
Oh, you’re my brother
You’re my sister

I’m So Sorry – Lyrics:
If my time would end today would I be ready to go?
And leave all the things I’ve worked so hard for
And all my friends and everyone I’ve known?
Never did I ever stop for a moment to think
Of what’s staring at me
I’ve been breaking all the mirrors of reality
Chorus:
I’m so sorry, if only I had just one last chance
I’m so sorry, but now it’s too late to change the past, oh
I lived my life in the fast lane, I only lived for today
And never, never really thought about anyone else
It was all about me, myself and I
Never did I ever stop for a moment to think
Of what’s staring at me
I’ve been breaking all the mirrors of reality, oh
Chorus
And now, now that it’s over
I wonder if anyone will remember me
If I had the chance to turn back the hands of time
There’re so many things that I would change
I’d live my life every single breath for You
Chorus
I’m so sorry, so sorry
Please forgive me

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

The high heavens exalt Your Name,
from which all names take their grace.
Timeless glories mark out Your reign,
from Your lofty dwelling place.
Understanding, bounteous One,
eternal gift of plenty;
omniscient, just and divine,
our Judge in all Your glory.
سبحت باسمك المجيد السماء

يا عظيماً يا حليماً وفرداً
من عطاياك دامت الآلاء
You give breeze to the wheeling birds
Sustained high up in the sky,
as You nurture us here on earth.
In Your warmth we glorify.
You sent messengers to us, Lord,
Revealing Your word and light.
You taught the scale above the sword,
Your justice is all men’s right.

Your forgiveness is my plea.

“Forgive Me” Lyrics:
I’m about to lose the battle and cross the line
I’m about to make another mistake
And even though I try to stay away
Everything around me keeps dragging me in
I can’t help thinking to myself
What if my time would end today, today, today?
Can I guarantee that I will get another chance
Before it’s too late, too late, too late
Chorus:
Forgive me… My heart is so full of regret
Forgive me… Now is the right time for me to repent, repent, repent..
Am I out of my mind?
What did I do? Oh, I feel so bad!
And every time I try to start all over again
My shame comes back to haunt me
I’m trying hard to walk away
But temptation is surrounding me, surrounding me
I wish that I could find the strength to change my life
Before it’s too late, too late, too late
CHORUS
I know O Allah You’re the Most-Forgiving
And that You’ve promised to
Always be there when I call upon You
So now I’m standing here
Ashamed of all the mistakes I’ve committed
Please don’t turn me away
And hear my prayer when I ask You to
CHORUS

Lyrics:
Can we not see how the planets look like diamonds in the sky?
And everything on earth was created for you and I
And can we not see that man is merely waiting
For the final day to arrive, to arrive
Do we feel a deeper meaning to it all?
And in our creation there are no flaws
And we’re trying to control something we can’t explain
Or we wander around blindly in the dark without an aim
Do we think it’s all a game?
La Ilaha Illa Allah
Muhammadun Rasool Allah
There’s no God but Allah
And Muhammad is the messenger of Allah
And do we think the truth is no longer clear to see?
And the simple things are left behind
Like smiling at your fellow man
Or looking up at the velvet sky
And sometimes it makes me wonder why we’re all still here

“Let It Go” Lyrics:-
Life can be so hard sometimes
Break you up inside
All you want to do is cry
Shut the door and hide
Don’t surrender to what was
Put your faith in what will be
Everyday is a brand new start
Chorus:
Let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go
Giving up should never be
Something you decide to do
Wipe the tears from your cheek
God knows what you’re going through
So don’t surrender to what was
Put your faith in what will be
Everyday is a brand new start, yeah
CHORUS
I know it’s hard but believe and keep trying
And it will be okay
‘Cause in your heart is the strength to survive it
You will be okay
And in no time like the sun you’ll be shining
Just let it go away
CHORUS
Let it go away, let it go
Oh, let it go

Lyrics:
He is an ocean of mercy
He is an ocean of love
He is the symbol of peace
His is the dawn of light
He is like the sun
Who shines on everyone
He is the ray of hope
Who is for everyone
He is the sign of One
His call is of God
His life is the Qur’an
His word is Hadith
He is the best man
Who was ever born
He is Allah’s Love
For now and forever
He is the best of teachers
He is the most wise
He has all the knowledge
Past present and future
He taught us kindness
For one and for all
He taught us mercy
For all humanity
He is sent by God
As the greatest gift
The heavens and the Earth
Were made just for him
The sun and the moon
All take from his light
He is the reason
We are here today
He has the all the keys
For Duniya and for Deen
He is the path of truth
Which leads to Allah
He is the only one
To follow and to love
After all he is Muhammad Mustafa
