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)
