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

Lyrics:
Ours the future hold close
For a time will come
Deep in your heart there’s a river that flows
All the way to Kingdom come
Through the sandstorms where the high wind blows
A desert rose does bloom
Please help me…
Give the young a chance
Lead them in the dance
My people
Give the young a chance
To change their circumstance
And so… And so… It’s written:
As the moon shall turn the tides
And as the stars shall light your ride
Don’t listen to the words of fools
The young I know they are the jewels
Deeds I’ve done what I’ve become
Treasures I will find
Nourishment I do receive
Can’t help but believe
The road is long I shall stay strong
Please hear my song
Help me…
Give the young a chance
Lead them in the dance
My brothers
Give the young a chance
Lead them in the dance
My sisters
Give the young a chance
To change their circumstance
And so… And so… It’s written:
As the moon shall turn the tides
And as the stars shall light your ride
Don’t listen to the words of fools
The young I know they are the jewels
Take me to gardens where
Birds will sing lullabies
Find me in the shade of trees
Through gentle breeze
Sweet scents filled the air…
Give the young a chance
Lead them in the dance
My people
Give the young a chance
To change their circumstance
And so… And so… It’s written:
As the moon shall turn the tides
And as the stars shall light your ride
Don’t listen to the words of fools
The young I know they are the jewels

Grounded’s Lyrics :
When my head is down
And my wounds go deep
I could still go on
If you’re there for me
Losing the crown
Would only keep me grounded
I know the fall
Could only keep me humble
Losing it all
Would only leave me grateful
I could take it
I would not break
If you’re there for me
Solid ground for me
In a life before
Many years were bleak
But the highs were born
From the lows I’ve seen
Losing the crown
Would only keep me grounded
I know the fall
Could only keep me humble
Losing it all
Would only leave me grateful
I could take it
I would not break
If you’re there for me
Solid ground for me
If you’re there for me
My gravity
So come on keep me grounded
Keep me on my toes
When I’m losing my head
Keep me grounded
Come on keep me humble
Let me lose control
As long as you’re there with me
I could free fall,
Losing the crown
Would only keep me grounded
I know the fall
Could only keep me humble
Losing it all
Would only leave me grateful
I could take it
I would not break
If you’re there for me
Solid ground for me
If you’re there for me
Solid ground for me
If you’re there for me
Grounded’s Lyrics :

I could take it
I would not break
If you’re there for me

Many years were bleak
But the highs were born

Losing the crown
Would only keep me grounded
I know the fall
Could only keep me humble

So come on keep me grounded
Keep me on my toes
When I’m losing my head
Keep me grounded
Come on keep me humble
Let me lose control
As long as you’re there with me
I could free fall,
Losing the crown
Would only keep me grounded
I know the fall
Could only keep me humble
Losing it all
Would only leave me grateful
I could take it

Solid ground for me
If you’re there for me
Solid ground for me

Prelude to River of Paradise – Sami Yusuf
The opening sounds of this dramatic new composition by Sami Yusuf carry
the eternal message of wind and stones, with anchoring vocalization by Emin Mammadov.
Shur mugham elements are then introduced through the astonishing voice of Kanan Bayramli.
The sweeping melody conveys the majesty of place and the weight of time.
Rising above the Caspian Sea, Gobustan’s boulders contain six thousand ancient stone carvings,
messages left by our human ancestors over twenty thousand years ago.
They speak to us not just of another time, but of another way of being.
One remarkable feature of Gobustan are its stone drums, an ancient means of communicating
across distance (like a Stone Age text message).
The sound of these stone drums are incorporated into this extraordinary piece.
