Lyrics:
Every day I see the same headlines
Crimes committed in the name of the divine
People committing atrocities in his name
They murder and kidnap with no shame
But did he teach hatred, violence, or bloodshed? No… Oh No
He taught us about human brotherhood
And against prejudice he firmly stood
He loved children, their hands he’d hold
And taught his followers to respect the old
So would he allow the murder of an innocent child? Oh No…
Muhammad ya rasulallah
Muhammad ya habiballah
Muhammad ya khalilallah
Muhammad
Muhammad ya rasulallah
Muhammad ya shafi’allah
Muhammad ya bashirallah
Ya rasulallah
Muhammad the light of my eyes
About you they spread many lies
If only they came to realise
Bloodshed you despise

LYRICS
Nightshade blooming in my garden
Love I found on my way
Taking root when all was darkened
Scarred in me always
Shine, shine, shine on my dark nights
Shine a light on me
I’ve been wandering all my life and
Now I see the land
In my mornings, waves have taken
What I thought was there
I left you in time forsaken
(With) flowers in your hair
Shine, shine, shine on my dark nights
Shine a light on me
I’ve been wandering all my life and
Now I see the land

Lyrics:
Ey hüznüm, ey rahmet
(O my sadness, O mercy)
Ey iffet, ey Kudüs
(O purity, O Jerusalem)
Bir gözde yaş yada yağmur olsam
(If I were a teardrop in an eye or a drop of rain…)
Yağsam üstüne
(I would rain down on you)
Yangınların ben saklasam düşsem şehidin yüzüne
(I’d hide the fires, I’d fall on the face of a martyr)
Sabrın sonu selametin, kimi lanetin olur
(The end of patience is your salvation, but for whom will it be a curse)
Kaldır onur bayrağını dik dur!
(Raise your flag of honour and stand tall!)
Ey Kudüs ey Aksa
(O Jerusalem, O Al-Aqsa)
Unutulmadın asla
(You are never forgotten)
Umudumuz senle
(Our hope is with you)
Sen özgür ol Gazze
(Be free Gaza!)
Güneş doğarken müjdeler karanlıklar
(As the sun is rising, good news is coming to dispel the darkness)
Biter elemden sonra hep ferahlık var
(The pain is ending and there will be relief everywhere)
Enkazının bağrında bak çiçek açar
(Look, flowers are blooming in the heart of your rubble)
Güvercinler barış için kanat çırpar
(And doves are fluttering their wings for peace)
Ey Kudüs ey Aksa
(O Jerusalem, O Al-Aqsa)
Unutulmadın asla
(You are never forgotten)
Umudumuz senle
(Our hope is with you)
Sen özgür ol Gazze
(Be free Gaza!)
Benden seni sordukları günde bana
(On the day when they will ask me about you)
Dilime müjdelenen kutlu zaferi söylet
(Make my tongue sing the song of the blessed long-awaited victory)
Sustuklarımızı bizden sorma, affet ya Rab
(Don’t ask us about our silence and forgive us, O Lord)
Bu esarete özgürlüğü Sen nasip et
(And grant Palestine freedom from this subjugation)

Alhamdulillah – Ehsan Yasin & Daud Kim
The lyrics of this song come from the poetry of the 14th century mystical poet Nasimi, who was one of the first literary figures to compose in Azerbaijani. The composer sets an ecstatic mood in this new piece in Shur mugham that evokes Sufi ceremonies through high-energy percussion and dazzling avaz sections. The musical narrative is majestic, powerful, and intensely beautiful.

The lyrics of this song come from the poetry of the 14th century mystical poet Nasimi, who was one of the first literary figures to compose in Azerbaijani. The composer sets an ecstatic mood in this new piece in Shur mugham that evokes Sufi ceremonies through high-energy percussion and dazzling avaz sections. The musical narrative is majestic, powerful, and intensely beautiful.

Lyrics:
IT’S A GAME, THAT THEY PLAY
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه
TABI’UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM
WHAT A SHAME, WHAT THEY SAY
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه
TABI’UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM
WHERE ARE YOU IN MY DREAMS?
YOU FEEL SO CLOSE BUT SO FAR
WHEN ALL I WANT IS TO SEE
YOUR FACE IN FRONT OF ME
YOU MAKE ME CHASE AROUND
SHADOWS IN THE MOONLIGHT
ONLY FOR THE SUNRISE
TO OPEN MY EYES
MAKES ME JUMP TO MY FEET
WALK AROUND THE CITY STREETS
HOPING THAT I’LL FIND YOU
BY MY SIDE.
THEN I FEEL YOUR SUNLIGHT
BEAUTIFUL AND SO BRIGHT
FEELING I’M IN YOUR ARMS
FOR A WHILE
HOURS PASS LIKE A BREEZE
MOVING THROUGH THE PALM TREES
HAND IN HAND YOU AND ME
WITH YOUR SMILE
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه

BEN SENİ BİR GÜL GİBİ KOKLARIM
INHALING YOUR SCENT, JUST LIKE SMELLING A ROSE
AŞKINLA TUTUŞUR AŞKINLA YANARIM
BURNING INSIDE, WITH THE FIRE OF YOUR LOVE
HEP SENİ ARAR SENİ SORARIM
I ALWAYS LOOK FOR, AND ASK OF YOU
SANA VARMAK İÇİN HAYAL KURARIM
ALWAYS DREAM OF REACHING YOU
(URDU)
تیرا تصور میرا ہی سکوں ھے
TERA TASAWUR MERA HE SAKOON HAI
THE VERY MENTION OF YOU BECOMES MY TRANQUILITY
تیرا نام لینا میرا ھے جنوں
TERA NAM LEANA MERA HAI JANOON
TO TAKE YOUR NAME, IT BECOMES MY SANITY
وہ میٹھی باتیں تیری ھی سنوں میں
WOH METEE BATEIN TEREE HEE SOONOO MEIN
THOSE SWEET CONVERSATION OF YOURS I WOULD LISTEN TOO
دنیا برا مانے تو میں کیا کروں؟
DUNIYAH BOORA MAA NE THO MEIN KYA KAROO?
IF THE WORLD DEEMS THEM OFFENSIVE, WHAT DO I CARE?

It’s A Game – 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.

L’Amour Vivant – Sami Yusuf
J’ai corrigé les paroles
Si parfois,
tu as du mal à avancer
si tu te sens seul, si tu te sens paumé.
Quand la nuit s’éternise,
que l’obscurité t’oppresse
même désemparé,
même si tu ne sais quelle voie suivre.
Ne baisse pas les bras
et ne perd pas espoir
car Allah est toujours proche de toi..
Refrain1:
Incha’allah..x3
Tu trouveras ta voie
Incha’allah..x3
Tu trouveras ta voie
Si parfois
tu commets tant de fautes
que pour te repentir
tu penses qu’il est trop tard.
Tellement confus
des mauvais choix que tu fais
qui hantent ton esprit et
emplisse ton cœur de honte.
Ne baisse pas les bras et ne perd pas espoir car Allah est toujours proche de
toi.
Refrain1
Vas vers Allah, il n’est jamais très loin,
fais lui confiance lève tes mains et prie
Ouh Ya Allah guide nos pas et protège-nous de l’errance.
Tu es le seul qui puisse
‘nous montrer la voie’x4
Refrain2:
Incha’allah..x3
Nous trouverons notre voie
Incha’allah..x3
Nous trouverons notre voie

İnşallah – Lyrics:-
Every time
You feel like you cannot go on
You feel so lost and that you’re so alone
All you see is night
And darkness all around
You feel so helpless you can’t see which way to go
Don’t despair
And never lose hope
‘Cause Allah is always by your side
Chorus:
Insha Allah
Insha Allah
Insha Allah
You’ll find your way
Her zaman yolun bittiği yerde
Yalnız kaldığını hissettiğinde
Her yer siyah gün doğmazmış gibi
Karanlıklarda kaybolmuş gibi
Bilmezsin umutlar hep seninle
Bak Allah her zaman seninle
Insha Allah
Insha Allah
Insha Allah
Hak seninle
Turn to Allah
He’s never far away
Put your trust in Him
Raise your hands and pray
Ya Allah
Guide my steps, don’t let me go astray
You’re the only one who can show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Insha Allah

Lyrics:
Khuda haazir hai, (God is present)
الله حاضر
Khuda maujood hai, (God is existent)
الله موجود
Khuda maliki yawmid-din hai, (God is the master of the Day of Judgement)
الله مالك يوم الدين
Khuda raheem hai, (God is merciful)
الله رحيم
Bas tu hi kareem hai, (You are generous)
أنت الكريم
Ek tu hi haq hai, (You’re the only truth)
أنت الحق
Malik-ul-mulk, haq-ul-yaqeen hai (You’re the owner of all sovereignty, the Certain Truth)
مالك الملك، حق اليقين
A million faces around the world but,
مليون وه حول العالم لكن
One thing is the same,
شيئ واحد لا يتغير
In their eyes I can see a light,
أرى في أعينهم نورك
Calling out your name,
ينادي باسمك
Har din har raat mein… (Every day and every night…)
في كل يوم وليلة
Kai mojzaat hai, (There are many miracles,)
هناك معجزات عديدة
Har zarre mein chhupi, (Hidden in every atom,)
مختبئة داخل كل ذرة
Kai qaaynaat hai (Is a universe)
كون واسع
In your light I can feel the love,
في إشعاع نورك أشعر بالحب،
It’s all that I need
وهو كل ما أحتاج إليه
When I’m alone I can hear your voice
أسمع صوتك في وحدتي
Deep inside of me
داخل أعماقي
Ya Khuda, ya Khuda, (O God, O God!)
يا الله يا الله
Tu ibtida, tu inteha, (You’re the beginning, you are the end)
أنت المبتدئ والمنتهى
Sajde mein tu, Dua mein tu, (My prostrations are for you, my supplications are for you)
سجودي لك ودعائي لك
Bas tu hi tu hi meri panaah (You are my only shelter)
أنت ملاذي الوحيد
La ilaha illallah hu, la ilaha illallah (There is no god but God)
La ilaha illallah
لا إله إلا الله
Muhammad-ur rasul Ullah (Muhammad is the Messenger of God)
محمد رسول الله
Ya Khuda (O God) you’re the answer,
يا الله أنت الجواب
You’re the one that I seek,
أنت من أسعى إليه
You’re the shelter from the rain
وحماي من الصعاب
You’re my strength when I’m weak,
وقوتي حين أضعف
Azal se chali hai jo, (From the very beginning…)
منذ البدء
Teri hi sachchai hai, (Only your truth has been there)
لم توجد سوى حقيقتك
Roshni yeh jo Chhayee hai, (This light that has spread…)
هذا النور الذي انتشر
Noor ki parchhayee hai, (Is the reflection of divinity)
هو انعكاس الألوهية
In your light I can feel your love,
في جلاء نورك، أشعر بالحب
It’s all that I see,
وهو كل ما أراه
You’re the beat and the harmony,
أنت التناغم والانسجام،
That’s inside of me
اللذان يسكناني
Ya Khuda, ya Khuda, (O God, O God!)
يا الله ، يا الله
Tu ibtida, tu inteha, (You’re the beginning, you are the end)

DESCRIPTION:
Acclaimed British composer Sami Yusuf brings the immensely popular
Moroccan folk song ‘Fiyyashiyya’ to a European audience in his stunning
new arrangement performed live at the Holland Festival.
An achingly eloquent solo improvisation on the Chinese erhu
by the world-renowned master Guo Gan opens the piece,
which then moves into a joyful call and response between Sami Yusuf
and the vocalists of Cappella Amsterdam. As the rhythm builds,
the Arabic lyrics sung by the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra
are answered in English by Cappella Amsterdam.
This innovative rendition captures the exuberant essence of
the North African folk sound just as it clearly captured the hearts
of the audience who are heard clapping and singing along.
Written by the Moroccan poet
Sidi Othman ibn Yahya Cherki (known as “Sidi Bahloul Cherki”) in the 17th century

Bu yürek hep senle varolur yalniz senle coşar

Yine bendeki aşki anlatamazlar asla
Senden uzak olan gönüller dolar yasla
Sen aldığım nefes duyduğum ses aşk-i heves
Sensiz karanliklar aydinliğa eremez
İki cihanda sensin alemler efendisi
Şefaat eyle asla yalniz birakma bizi
Sen beklenen müjdelenen en kutlu peygamber
Sen merhamet ve şefkatinle bizlere rehber
Aşkinla hep çarpan yürekler nuruna muhtaç
Sen ruhlarin tabibi gönüllere ilaç

Üsküdar’a gider iken – طالما أشكو غرامي

….
إلى من أنارت دنيتي ..
إلى من جعلت لحياتي معنى ..
قبل عام كنت أترنم بهذه الأبيات عندما وُلدتِ وكنت أشعر أنها تعبّر عمّا بداخلي ..
أما الكلمات التركية فهي قصيدة عثمانية قديمة تحكي قصة طفلة صغيرة
كانت معجبة بكاتب أو بفنان، وحين رآها الفنان افتتن بعينيها الجميلتين ..
فشعرتُ أنني ذلك الفنان وأنك تلك الفتاة التي أخذت قلبي ..
أسأل الله أن يحفظكِ بعينه التي لا تنام وأن يقر عيني بكِ ..
