Oblivion – Sami Yusuf
Don’t despair, don’t lose hope
Hold on to that rope
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I hear your call
Though you feel so cold
Abandoned and alone
But don’t let go, don’t let go
I hear your call
CHORUS
Give me your hand my brother
I will not let you go
Please don’t look back my sister
I swear I hear you call
Give me your hand my brother
I will not let you fall
Please don’t look back my sister
Cause I swear I hear your call
Little boy ask away
“Where are the streets I used play to?”
But don’t let go, don’t let go
I hear your call
Don’t you know we’re One
When you hurt I hurt
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I hear your call

CHORUS
Give me your hand my brother
I will not let you fall
So don’t look back my sister
Cause I swear I hear your call
Don’t despair, don’t lose hope
Hold on to that rope
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I hear your call
Though you feel so cold
Abandoned and alone
But don’t let go, don’t let go
I hear your call
CHORUS
Give me your hand my brother
I will not let you go
Please don’t look back my sister

Give me your hand my brother

Little boy ask away
“Where are the streets I used play to?”

Good life, good life

Wear a smile, go out and have some fun

With unwritten lines

It’s going, going to be alright
I know my life ain’t perfect

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

When I learnt for the first time
I know my heart wasn’t prepared
For just how much You’d mean to me
But Allah, how I know now
That a life without You there

Always right there beside me
I’m so blessed You’re The One
In my life
Always right there to guide me
Giving me strength
You’re The One

“I’m Alive” Lyrics:
You’re the reason my life’s worth living
You’re the reason I’m alive
I’d be lost without You
You’re the reason that I strive
You’re my destiny
You’re my reverie
You’re the reason that I breathe
You are all that I believe
Chorus:
Ilahi, ilahi, ilahi, Maula
(My Lord, my Lord, my Lord, my Master)
Ho malang mein
(Like a wandering mystic)
Zindagi ki raah chal chala
(I have set forth on this journey called life)
Hai Khuda ek tera mera
(One Creator for you and me)
Hai ek falsafa
(This is my philosophy [in life])
Pre-Chorus:
Khana’badosh hon
(I’m a nomad traveller)
Mein madhosh hon
(I’m lost in a trance)
Tere ishq mein
(In Your supreme love)
Mein sharaboor hon
(I am deeply submerged)
CHORUS
For so long I’ve been denying
But now I feel like I’m flying
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
Now nothing seems impossible
With You I feel unstoppable
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive

Lyrics:
We keep telling each other
That this day will be
Will be the last and tomorrow
We all can go home free
And all this will finally end
Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free
No mother, no father to wipe away my tears
That’s why I won’t cry
I feel scared but I won’t show my fears
I keep my head high
Deep in my heart I never have any doubt
That Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free
I saw those rockets and bombs shining in the sky
Like drops of rain in the sun’s light
Taking away everyone dear to my heart
Destroying my dreams in a blink of an eye
What happened to our human rights?
What happened to the sanctity of life?
And all those other lies?
I know that I’m only a child
But is your conscience still alive?
I will caress with my bare hands
Every precious grain of sand
Every stone, and every tree
‘Cause no matter what they do
They can never hurt you
‘Cause your soul will always be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free

LYRICS :
I praise Allah for sending me you my love
You’ve found your home it’s here with me, and I’m here with you
Now let me let you know
You’ve opened my heart
I was always thinking that love was wrong
But everything was changed when you came along, oh
And there’s a couple of words I want to say
Chorus:
For the rest of my life, I’ll be with you
I’ll stay by your side, honest and true
Till the end of my time, I’ll be loving you, loving you
For the rest of my life, through days and nights
I’ll thank Allah for opening my eyes
Now and forever I, I’ll be there for you
I know it deep in my heart
I feel so blessed when I think of you
And I ask Allah to bless all we do
You’re my wife, and my friend and my strength
And I pray we’re together in Jannah
Finally now I’ve found my self, I feel so strong
Yes everything was changed when you came along, oh
And there’s a couple of words I want to say
Chorus
And now that you’re here, in front of me
I strongly feel love
And I have no doubt, and I’ll sing it loud
And that I will love you eternally

For the Rest of My Life (Vocals Only Version) – Maher Zain
DESCRIPTION:
‘Call My Name’ is a love song inspired by Ibn ‘Arabi. Full of metaphysical allusions,
the lyrics evoke a memory of the bliss of divine union, the time when we were “alone with the Alone”
in paradise before the Fall. But that union has given way to separation. The beloved seems distant,
and the heart of the lover cries out, seeking a return to that unity that was lost. Mystical and evocative,
‘Call My Name’ echoes the divine longing that is the very essence of love.

Ya Rabbee salli ‘aleeh

All the poetry ever written
Every verse and every line
All the love songs in the world
Every melody and rhyme
If they were combined
They would still be unable to express
What I want to define
When I try to describe my love for you
Every sound and every voice
In every language ever heard
Each drop of ink that has been used
To write every single word
They could never portray
Everything I feel in my heart and want to say
And it’s hard to explain
Why I could never describe my love for you
There’s not a single person
Who can ever match his worth
In character and beauty
To ever walk on earth
I envy every rock and tree
And every grain of sand
That embraced his noble feet
Or that kissed his blessed hands
Ya Rasool Allah
Ya Habiba Allah
Grant us the chance to be with him
we pray to Allah

Lyrics:
You came to me
In that hour of need
When I was so lost
So lonely
You came to me
Took my breath away
Showed me the right way
The way to lead
You filled my heart with love
Showed me the light above
Now all I want
Is to be with you
You are my one true love
Taught me to never judge
Now all I want
Is to be with you
Allahumma Salli ‘ala Sayyinda Mustafa, ‘ala Habibeeka, Nabi’eeka, Mustafa
Seni andım,
Sana muhtacım,
Nurunla aydınlandım
Hayatım, senle anlamlı
Sende çözüldü, herşeyin sırrı
Sana kurban olsun
Canım feda olsun
Yeter ki ruhum
Seninle olsun
Günahlarda kayboldum
Acılarla yoğruldum
Yeter artık ruhum
Seninle olsun
Allahumma Salli 3ala Sayyinda Mustafa, 3ala Habibeeka, Nabi’eeka, Mustafa
Showed me right from wrong
Taught me to be strong
Need you more than ever
Ya Rasul Allah
You came to me
In that hour of need
Need you more than ever
Ya Rasul Allah
You filled my heart with love
Showed me the light above
Now all I want
Is to be with you
You are my One True love
Taught me to never judge
Now all I want
Is to be with you

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

“All About Me” Lyrics:
Have I lost my mind, wasting time
Begging for the whole world to subscribe
Did I lose control of my ego
You know a selfie’s never good the first hundred times!
‘Cause I’m living my life all through a screen
Filtered friends, yeah I’m loving the dream
No I don’t want to wake to a world that is so real
I’m feeding my Me, keep me in this twirl!
Looking for likes in a lonely world
Trying to numb my pain just to know that I can feel
‘Cause you know what they say:
Hey! We’ve got the answer!
It’s all about me, and for my pleasure!
And you know what they say:
Hey! It just feels better!
It’s all about me, and that’s what matters!
Oh, hey! It’s all about me!
Oh, hey! It’s all about me!
Is it worth a post, if I can’t boast
About the views and comments that fill my eyes
Stuck in our own bubble. And even if it goes viral
Why can’t we speak heart to heart with an open mind
Because I’m living my life all through a screen
Filtered friends, yeah I’m loving the dream
No I don’t want to wake to a world that is so real
I’m feeding my Me, keep me in this twirl!
Looking for likes in a lonely world
Trying to numb my pain just to know that I can feel
‘Cause you know what they say:
Hey! We’ve got the answer!
It’s all about me, and for my pleasure!
And you know what they say:
Hey! It just feels better!
It’s all about me, and that’s what matters!
Oh, Hey! It’s all about me!
Oh, Hey! It’s all about me!
OMG! What’s happening to me
FOMO has kept me ironically
From being all that I could ever really be!
Am I living asleep because I love my screen
Hashtag friends, am I losing a dream
Shake me, wake me up to a world that I can feel!
It’s a feeding frenzy and a dizzy twirl
Lonely for likes in a busy world
We feel so connected but our brokenness is all so real
‘Cause you know what I say:
Hey! Nothing lasts forever!
Is it all about me, and for my pleasure?
Can’t you hear what I say
Hey! Trying to find the answers!
Going to shut my screen and like what really matters!
‘Cause you know what I say:
Hey! Nothing lasts forever!
Is it all about me, and for my pleasure
Can’t you hear what I say
Hey! Trying to find the answers!
Gonna shut my screen and like what really matters!
Yeah, gonna shut my screen, and share what really matters

Lyrics:
My best times
Were when I felt close to you
But everything fell apart
The moment I strayed from you
In each smile
In every single sigh
Every minute detail
Traces of you are found there
Wherever you are I’ll find you
Cause you’re the one I turn to
Wherever you be I’ll be with you
Cause you’re the one my heart is to
I need you
To see your smile
I would pass every trial
Desperately I await
For the day when I’m by your side
Wherever you are I’ll find you
Cause you’re the one I turn to
Wherever you are I’ll follow you
Cause you’re the one I turn to
Wherever you be I’ll be with you
Cause you’re the one my love is to
My love is to
In every minute detail,
Traces of u are found there,
In every step that I take,
My longing becomes so clear…
I’ll follow you anywhere,
I’ll overcome every fear,
Anything just to be near, To be near.
To be near.
Wherever you may be
I’ll follow till I see
In my heart you will be
Your love is all I need
In every single smile
Every single sigh
Every minute detail
Traces of you are there
Wherever you may be
I will search till we meet
In my heart you will be
Your love is all I need
Wherever you may be

Allahi Allah kiya karo
Dukh na kisee ko diya karo
Joh duniya ka malik hai
Nam usee ka liya karo
Allahi Allah
(Say always in remembrance Allah O Allah
Do not give anyone sorrow or despair
For He is the sovereign king of the whole world
Take only His name
Allah O Allah)
Just like a sunrise
Can’t be denied no
Just like the river
Will find the sea
O Allah, you’re here
And You’re always near
And I know without a doubt
That You always hear my prayer
Chorus
So many bright stars
Like diamonds in the sky, Oh
It makes me wonder
How anyone can be blind
To all the signs so clear
Just open your eyes
And I know without a doubt
You will surely see the light
Theri hi dunya
Theri zameen
Yeh kahekashan hai
Thu hai Karim

Hum bebas hain
There bina
Roshan kar jahan

This is your earth
This is your sky
You are generous
My Lord, hear my prayer
We are helpless without you
Illuminate the earth)

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

Heart of A-Muslim – Saif Adam
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
This powerful new composition begins with the haunting and resonant vocalizations of Sami Yusuf,
then adds instrumental, rhythmic, and vocal layers to create an epic unison section
that evokes the many-faceted aspects of the arc of Azerbaijan’s history. This piece features
stunning vocal solos by Sevda Alekperzadeh, Tayyar Bayramov, Samira Aliyeva, and a beautiful tar solo
by Sahib Pashazade that leads into the majestic outro.
Written in Bayāt-e Shīrāz mugham, its sweeping melody is inspired by the story of this region
from its earliest times to its hopes for the future.

Azerbaijan – Sami Yusuf
When the seasons change
In the monsoon rains
When a newborn cries
In a mother’s eyes
I think of You
ربنا الرحمن
مبدع الأكوان
صاحب الجلال
من له الكمال
لا رب سواه
لا رب سواه
(Our Lord the most Merciful
Creator of the universe
Possessor of glory
To whom perfection belongs
No lord but Him
No lord but Him)
Miracles
Are everyday
The moon will come
As the sun will fade
Forever this way
When the seasons change
In the monsoon rains
When a newborn cries
In a mother’s eyes
I think of You
I think of You
سبحان الله ، سبحان الله
سبحان الله ، سبحان الله
(Glory be to Allah
Glory be to Allah)
A seed that grows
From a tiny shell
Becomes a tree
Feeding you and me
Here for our needs
هذه الأطيار
تلكم الأزهار
ونجوم الليل
من صنع الله
لا رب سواه
(These birds
Those flowers
And the night’s stars
Are all Allah’s creation
No lord but Him)
When the seasons change
In the monsoon rains
When a newborn cries
In a mother’s eyes
I think of You
I think of You
سبحان الله ، سبحان الله
سبحان الله ، سبحان الله
(Glory be to Allah
