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
I know you have unanswered questions
But those are the ones
You need to solve yourself
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

“Medina” Lyrics:-
Medina, Medina
Medinatun Nabi (the city of the Prophet)
In my dreams I make my way to Medina
The home and chosen place
Of our beloved Prophet
Where all I feel is peace
And so much joy around
No better place for me, yeah!
Chorus:
Medina, Medina
Medinatun Nabi (the city of the Prophet)
Medina, Medina
That’s where I want to be
Medina, Medina
Medinatun Nabi
Medina, Medina
That’s where I want to be
Oh, oh, Medina Medina
Oh, oh, Medina Medina
I wake with the morning light in Medina
Everywhere I see blue skies
Set above these mountains
Bright colours fill the streets
A smile on every face
A special place for me, yeah!
CHORUS
Tala’al badru ‘alayna, min thaniyyatil wadaa’
Wajabash shukru ‘alayna, ma da’a lillahi daa’
Ayyuhal mab’uthu fina, ji’ta bil amril mutaa’
Ji’ta sharraftal Medina, marhaban ya khayra daa’
(The full Moon rose over us
From the valley of Wadaa’
And we owe it to show gratefulness
Whenever a caller prays to Allah
O you who were raised amongst us
Coming with the word to be obeyed
You have brought to Medina nobleness
Welcome, best caller to God’s way)

Lyrics :
There’s something on my mind, on my mind
I just can’t get it right, can’t get it right
It doesn’t go away, doesn’t go away
Even though I try to ignore it
I just want peace of mind, I want peace of mind
I feel like breaking down time after time
And it keeps coming back, always coming back
All my life doubting was a part of me
Day and night I fight my insecurities
Asking: “Why?” “Why am I?” “Who am I?”
I just want some peace of mind
Antassalam (You [God] are Peace)
Wa minkassalam (And from You comes all peace)
Tabarakta ya (Blessed are You)
Ya Thal Jalali wal Ikram (O Lord of Majesty and Bounty)
O God I need Your peace, I need Your peace
I still believe with hardship comes ease
Make this stress go away, go away
Go away, go away, yeah!
All my life I know You’ve been guiding me
You’re the One, the One who knows my destiny
I’ll be alright, I’m sure that You’ll look after me
You know what’s inside of me
All my life I know You’ve been blessing me
You’re the only One, the One who knows my destiny
I’ll be alright, I’m sure that You’ll look after me
You know what’s inside of me

Lyrics:
When I try to show you a way
You just throw it right back in my face
You’re just to lie to what you want to believe
You can’t take that is good advice from me.
Chorus:
The road is long, the path is high
And sometimes we all need help in this life
But you’re too strong, and you’re so wise
But carry on and you won’t survive
And when I try to lend you a hand
You push me away won’t try to understand

“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

Azerbaijan: A Timeless Presence is a breathtaking musical odyssey through a rich
artistic and cultural heritage. The music was composed, arranged, and directed by Sami Yusuf
for the Opening Ceremony of the 43rd Session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee
in Baku on June 30, 2019. The performance was directed by the renowned creative director Andrei Boltenko.
This newly created cultural treasure comprises nine themes; each theme
expresses an aspect of the ethos of Azerbaijan from the land’s earliest
inhabitants some twenty thousand years ago to its contemporary realities and aspirations.
With fifty-seven highly skilled musicians under his direction,
Sami Yusuf displays his mastery of a complex musical language while
staying true to the traditional sounds of the region. The instruments
used (except the piano) are traditional instruments from the region including the tar,
an instrument so significant that it is said to have taken a role in shaping
the cultural identity of Azerbaijanis; the kamancha, the stringed instrument related to the Byzantine
lyra and European violin family; and the balaban, a double-reed ancient wind instrument with a plaintive, solemn sound.
Azerbaijan: A Timeless Presence mesmerises with its dazzling musical range
from the subtle to the powerful and from the evocative to the majestic.
It is the soundscape of a region that displays an underlying universality.
These inspired compositions by this renowned musician evoke powerful emotional responses in listeners
no matter their cultural origin.

“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

Khorasan:
Khorasan is inspired by the stories ‘In Baghdad Dreaming of Cairo: In Cairo,
Dreaming of Baghdad’ by Rumi, and ‘The Alchemist’ by Paulo Coelho. Sometimes
the treasures we are looking for have been with us all along, but it can take a long journey
to discover this. Khorasan is a historical region of Persia that provides
the destination of this spiritual journey, where we discover the answers
to the secrets of this world were inside us all along.

Earth and stone

Can you guide me to the treasures I have lost?
Can you show me every secret I forgot?
When I came you asked me where I had come from
You said my homeland was my kingdom all along
Khorasan
I must go
Send me home
Breathe in me
I have healed
I have grown
Give me peace
In my soul

Candle – Safe Adam
Lyrics:
He cried for us late at night
A candle lit saw passers-by,
And from his lips it could be heard,
Allah, Allah, forgive my Ummah
Rabbi Habli Ummati
The pearls that had left his eyes,
Rolled down his face for you and I,
And from his lips it could be heard
Allah, Allah, forgive my Ummah
Witness were those by his side,
The very last breaths of his life,
From his lips it could be heard.
Allah, Allah, forgive my Ummah
Crowned the king of messengers,
For once he did not forget us,
No matter where we’ll ever be,
From our lips it shall be heard,
Peace and blessings be upon you oh Beloved of Allah

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

Māhūr Instrumental (Live at the Dubai Opera)
Prism:
The light of our sun contains all the colours of this world, and the Prism allows us
to separate this light in to its “secret layers”. Inspired by a phrase
from a Hadith Qudsi (Sacred scripture): “When I love him I am his hearing with which he hears,
his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he moves and his foot with which he walks”,
the Prism is a symbol of discovery, a way of seeing “with which he sees”.

Lyrics:
All of your waves
Have come from one
The seed has spread
The dawn of light
Has split from white
To blues and reds
Behind it all
There must be more
Seven colours of day
Show the light of your way
Have I found what is lying behind
The fire in your eyes?
Do you see what I see?
And from one breath
All sound was formed
Your words could sing
The prism shares
Your secret layers
Unraveling
Behind it all
There must be more
Seven colours of day
Show the light of your way
Have I found what is lying behind
The fire in your eyes?
Do you see what I see?
Every heart, Every hand, Every head
Rise up
Every thought, Every tear, Every smile
Rise up
Every fear, Every doubt, Every trouble
Rise up
Every hope, Every wish, Every prayer
Rise Up
Every faith, Every creed, Every colour
Rise Up
Every mind, Every soul, Everyone
(Rise Up)
Do you see what I see?

“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!

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:

There’s faith in my world
It comes back to your teachings and all your words
From your life I have learnt
To be patient and caring at every turn
The reason I’m strong
You’re where I belong
In a world spinning out of control
The reason for my pride
You are my guide
And I will always follow your way
Your way, your way, oh!
Chorus:
‘Alayka salla Allah O Muhammad
(May Allah’s salutations be upon you O Muhammad)
Peace & blessings on you every day
‘Alayka salla Allah O Muhammad
You inspire me in every way
I promise that wherever I go
Whenever I pray
I’ll be sending you praise
With the words that I say
Rasulallah (Messenger of Allah), O Muhammad
Peace & blessings on you every day
There’s light in my heart
Helps me find my way back when I’ve gone too far
When all my anger makes me blind
I remember you’re a mercy for all mankind
The reason I forgive as long as I live
In a world spinning out of control
The reason I love, I’ll never give up
And I will always follow your way
Your way, your way, oh!
I know the only thing I want from this life
And it’s to follow all your footsteps to Paradise
So that’s the way I’m going to spend all my time
Yes I swear, by Allah I swear!

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)?

Lyrics:
I’ve been dreaming of this world
Won’t you come along and dream with me?
It’s picture-perfect in my mind
Oh how I wish it would be real, oh real
No one living on the streets or digging for a bite to eat,
And pain and hunger are nothing, nothing but a memory
Let’s dream to make it real
Chorus:
Dream your biggest dream
If we dream enough together we can make it real
And lend a helping hand
What we keep won’t mean anything, once we’re gone
No abandoned women, struggling hard trying to make ends meet
No more missing fathers for their sons to be left all alone crying
Elders and children are all cared for lovingly
No one falling through the cracks of government bureaucracy
Let’s dream to make it real
CHORUS
Too many times I’ve walked through these streets
Wondering where we went wrong
Our hands alone can feel so helpless and weak
But surely with yours they’ll be strong
Our problems and fears will soon disappear
If we try hard enough they’ll all be gone
Brothers and sisters, it takes each of us
Together we can overcome!
We shall overcome

“Alhamdu lillah” Lyrics:
I’m cruising on my journey
With it all the good and bad, hmm
His blessings that I don’t see
‘Cause I want Allah to love me
I’ll thank Him for whatever I have
Alhamdu lillah (praise be to God)
No matter what comes my way
Alhamdu lillah (praise be to God)
My heart will thank and praise
And every time I’m feeling down, or out of place
Alhamdu lillah (praise be to God)
Everything is gonna be OK!
This dunya (worldly life) can deceive me
When nothing ever goes as planned, hmm
And when I can’t remember,
My heart will surely understand
I ask Allah to guide me
I’m starving for His mercy
So I’ll thank Him for whatever I have
Alhamdu lillah (praise be to God)
No matter what comes my way
Alhamdu lillah
My heart will thank and praise
And every time I’m feeling down, or out of place
Alhamdu lillah
Everything is gonna be OK!
Alhamdu lillah, alhamdu lillah
Alhamdu lillah, alhamdu lillah
Alhamdu lillah (praise be to God)
No matter what comes my way
Alhamdu lillah
My heart will thank and praise
And every time I’m feeling down, or out of place
Alhamdu lillah
Everything is gonna be OK!
Alhamdu lillah
No matter what comes my way
Alhamdu lillah
My heart will thank and praise
And every time I’m feeling down, or out of place
Alhamdu lillah
Everything is gonna be OK!
Alhamdu lillah
Everything is gonna be OK, yeah!

‘Shirvanshah’s Palace’, a new instrumental work from Sami Yusuf, features a 57-member
orchestra and dazzling solos on oud, kamanche, tar and balaban.
The musical narrative is majestic, powerful and intensely beautiful.
This piece is performed in Shur mugham [Əbu Əta], evoking an ecstatic mood that
echoes the Sufi ceremony of remembrance.
Although the sub-mode Əbu Əta (Or Abū ’Atā) is seldom used in recent decades,
it has been part of the Azerbaijani mugham system for centuries. The composer has chosen
to honor this particular traditional expression here, and in doing so seeks
to contribute to the revival of this complex musical language.
Shirvanshah’s Palace is a 15th century complex in Baku where the revered philosopher and sage,
Seyid Yahya Bakuvi, taught and prayed and where his tomb is located.
Performed live at the Opening Ceremony of the 43rd World Heritage Committee held in Baku,
Azerbaijan on 30th June, 2019.
