“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

“Southern Salawat” Lyrics:
A world so lost, a world in pain
A world in need as mercy came
A calming peace, a love like rain
Our hearts will sing and praise his name
Chorus:
Salatullah salamullah
(May Allah’s peace and salutations be…)
‘Ala Taha Rasulillah
(Upon Taha, Allah’s Messenger)

‘Ala Yaseen Habibillah
(Upon Yaseen, Allah’s beloved)
Salatullah salamullah
(May Allah’s peace and salutations be…)

(Upon Yaseen, Allah’s beloved)
A living guide, his light will bring
The best in us to everything
O Allah send Your peace and blessings
In loving praise his name we’ll sing
CHORUS
Ilaahi salliml Ummah
(O Allah save the nation of believers)
Minal afaati wan niqmah

(Accept our prayers O Allah!)

“Trust” lyrics:-
I am broken
How can it be?
Is all I’ve ever known a twisted lie to me?
I am drowning
It’s hard to breathe
Is my faith in God alone enough for me?
Was the peace I felt at all real?
Can these words somehow help me heal?
Chorus:
I’m putting all my trust in You Allah
It really feels like I’ve lost it all
Hope is slowly fading away,
But at the end of the day
I trust only You Allah
Our stars are burning
As we watch them fall
Is there any good left in this world at all?
We’re only human
And that’s what they say
But can I really brush this painful feeling away?
Was the peace I felt at all real?
Can these words somehow help me heal?
CHORUS
We’ve built them high, only to cheer their fall
All for a like and and a thousand shares
Redemption lost, all of our wounds are raw
Leaving us cold and blue
O Allah we turn to You!
CHORUS x 2
Trust only You Allah
Only You Allah

“Subhan Allah” Lyrics:
As we awake at dawn to His vast kingdom
We say Subhan Allah
And as the sun will rise and the darkness dies
We say Subhan Allah
Waving at the trees, dancing with the bees,
We say Subhan Allah
With hearts open wide, letting love inside
We say Subhan Allah
All around us everywhere, it’s in front of our eyes
All glory and praises to be, until the end of time !
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, the lord of all glory
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, what He says will always be
Our story starts with clay, It’s in our DNA
We say Subhan Allah
So many genes we share, all the signs are there
We say Subhan Allah
And what’s beneath our skin, a universe within!
We say Subhan Allah
Under His fading sun, we are all just one
We say Subhan Allah
All around us everywhere, it’s in front of our eyes
All glory and praises to be, until the end of time !
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, the lord of all glory
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, what He says will always be
The love and life you gave this universe, we’re all in praise of You
All Glory!
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, Subhanak Ya Rabee
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, the lord of all glory
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, what He says will always be
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, the lord of all glory
Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah, what He says will always be
All praise and glory!

“More Than Me And You” Lyrics:
I’m scared to death but I’m happy
I don’t know what to do
You came to me and said,
“Babe, guess what?! I think our dream’s finally coming true!”
A tiny gift from heaven
I can’t believe it’s real
A test for us to relish
this new love that we feel
Chorus:
And now our hearts are sealed together
And now our lives will change forever
I thank God for that tiny beating heart,
A love so true
I guess it’s gonna be more than me and you
I’ll take good care of your taste buds
And learn to count in weeks
While you keep you her warm from this worldly storm,
I’ll sing you both to a cozy sleep
A soul we’ll share between us
with His guidance from up above
There’s an angel growing,
And it’s got you glowing,
With noor from all His love
CHORUS
I’m counting my blessings from the moment that I met you
And patiently waiting for our dream to come true
It’s already written, so I prayed for you and me
And whatever happens : It’s Allah’s mercy
CHORUS x 2

“Mercy” Lyrics:-
I’ve got that feeling in my gut
Because Lord I know that I messed up
And no one, yes no one would hear my call
These last few years a living hell
I feel so lost though I can’t tell
If no one, yes no one would feel my fall
And so my only hope is:
Chorus
Mercy ya Rahman
Mercy ya Raheem
Rabbee have mercy on me!
Tired of this never ending fight
Can’t seem to do anything right
And I wonder how much my heart can bend
Dark thoughts are sinking in my head
I’m wide awake but I feel dead
And I wonder, yes I wonder when will it’ll end
And so my only hope is:
Mercy ya Rahman
Mercy ya Raheem
Rabbee have mercy on me!
I’m feeling nothing left to give this world, so cold and hardened
Lord, I know you’re closer than the my veins and with the broken hearted
Mercy ya Rahman
Mercy ya Raheem
Rabbee have mercy on me!
Yeah!
Mercy ya Rahman!
Mercy ya Raheem!
Rabbee have mercy on me!

“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!
Alhamdu lillah
Everything is gonna be OK!

I Love Muhammad – Lyrics:
I close my eyes
And I see the most beautiful smile
From the most beloved,
The final Prophet of all mankind
Al Mustafa (The Chosen One)
Came to a world drowning in greed
For you and for me
A perfect guide to be
Until the end of time
CHORUS
Peace be upon him
I love Muhammad
His loved ones and kin
I love Muhammad
Whenever, wherever
I love Muhammad
Now and forever
I love Muhammad
All night and all day,
I love Muhammad
No matter what they say
I love Muhammad
A mercy for all
We’ll answer the call
And say “I love Muhammad”
Gentle and brave
His heart he gave
To those downtrodden,
The weak and forgotten
For all the world to save
I pray he will be
Standing with me
On that final day
We’ll seek Allah’s grace
Until then we’ll sing and say
CHORUS
Salla Allahu ‘ala Muhammad
Salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam
Salla Allahu ‘ala Muhammad
Salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam

Ramadan Is Here
Written by Raef
Music Producer: Nick Baumhardt
….
With hope in our eyes, we search thru the skies
waiting for our old friend
With loved ones nearby and our spirits high
a blessed time we’ll spend
In both love and in fear to Allah we draw near
hands raised to the sky
O Allah, please forgive us
and guide us to Paradise
Ramadan is here!
Allah’s mercy is near!
Time to give, time to share, time to show we care
cause Ramadan is here!
All day and all night, noble words we’ll recite
Healing our hearts with Quran:
Revealed on the Night of Power
A guide for this world till the end
Like past nations have done, we’ll fast for the One
Creator, from Him shines all light
O Allah, please forgive us
and guide us to paradise
Ramadan is here!
Allah’s mercy is near!
Time to give, time to share, time to show we care
cause Ramadan is here!
With friends and family, we’ll break bread and be
thankful for all we have
Spending our nights in prayer
a chance for a brand new path
A month to let go of grudges we hold
Time to make it right
O Allah, please unite us
and guide us to paradise
O And guide us to paradise!
Ramadan is here!
Allah’s mercy is near!
Time to give, time to share, time to show we care
cause Ramadan is here!
Ramadan is here!
Allah’s mercy is near!
Time to give, time to share, time to show we care

They say that love never lasts
That love never lives to see another day
But what I know deep down inside
It’s what I feel and it’s so real
I gave it up all for You
And there ain’t nothing that I won’t do
All I know deep down inside
It’s what I feel and it’s so real with You!
Chorus:
Allah, everyday I’ll try to be as true as I can to You
‘Cause loving You the best I can
Will always be my number one and only plan
Yes everyday I’ll try to be as true as I can to You
‘Cause loving You the best I can
Will always be my number one and only plan
They say: “You’re out of your mind”
“Don’t you know that love fades away?”
They say: “It only brings you pain!”
But what I feel is so real!
I gave it up and turned to You
‘Cause I know what your love can do
O Allah open up our hearts
And make us feel how it’s so real with You!

أعمال قد تنال استحسانك

I remember when I first met you
I felt that God answered my call
There was that one place I always thought about
And I just wanted to be there with you
The place that no eye has ever seen
The place that no heart has ever perceived
I had a great feeling inside of me
That one day I’ll be there with you
And now that we’re here feeling so good
About all the things that we went through
Knowing that God is pleased with us too
It’s not a dream, this is so true
Feeling the peace all around
Seeing things we could never imagine
Hearing the sound of rivers flow
And we know we’ll be here forever
The feeling is indescribable
Knowing that this is our reward
Do you remember the hard times we went through?
And those days we used to argue
But there was not one thing that could bring us down
‘Cause we always had in our minds
The place that no eye has ever seen
The place that no heart has ever perceived
The place we’ve been promised to live in forever
And best of all, it’s just me and you
And now that we’re here feeling so good
About all the things that we went through
Knowing that God is pleased with us too
It’s not a dream, this is so true
Feeling the peace all around
Seeing things we could never imagine
Hearing the sound of rivers flow
And we know we’ll be here forever
The feeling is indescribable
Knowing that this is our reward
I remember us praying at night
And just dreaming about this together
I’m so blessed to have you in my life
And now we can enjoy these blessings forever
Paradise is where we are now
Paradise, a dream come true
Paradise, O what a feeling!
Paradise, thank You Allah!
And now that we’re here feeling so good
About all the things that we went through
Knowing that God is pleased with us too
It’s not a dream, this is so true
Feeling the peace all around

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:
Gönüllärde hasretin var
Yüreklär ashkenla tcharpar
Sensiz Dünya bizlere dar
Seelam sana Ey kotlu yar
(Our souls long for you
Our hearts beat with your love
This world without you is unbearable for us
Peace and blessings upon you O Prophet)
With submission, faith and patience
You conveyed the noble “message”
Brought us light through your guidance
Peace be upon you my beloved
Ya habibi ya Muhammad

Chorus:
Ya Nabi salam ‘alayka
Ya Rasool salam ‘alayka
Ya Habib salam ‘alayka
Salawatu Allah ‘alayka

O Messenger peace and blessings be upon you
O Beloved peace and blessings be upon you
May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon you)
Teri mohabbat kee mehek se
Yeah zameeno asma abadh hain
Rehmat kee barsat aati hain
Dillo jaan ya rasoola Allah

The earth and sky reside
You’re a monsoon of mercy
Beloved of my heart O Messenger of Allah)

Lyrics:
I hear the flowers kind of crying loud
The breeze is sounding sad, oh no
Tell me when did we become so cold and empty inside
Lost our way long time ago
Did we really turn that blind?
We don’t see that we keep hurting each other no
All we do is just fight
Now we share the same bright sun
The same round moon
Why don’t we share the same love?
Tell me why not
Life is shorter than most had thought
Chorus:
Hold my hand
There are many ways to do it right
Hold my hand
Turn around and see what we’ve left behind
Hold my hand my friend
We could save the good spirit in me and you
For another chance
And let’s pray for the beautiful world
The beautiful world I share with you
Children seem like they’ve lost their smile
On the new bloody play grounds, oh no
How could we ignore heart breaking crying sounds
And we’re still going on like nobody really cares
And we just stopped feeling all the pain we cause
Like it’s a daily basic affair
Now we share the same bright sun
The same round moon
Why don’t we share the same love?
Tell me why not
Life is shorter than most had thought
Chorus
No matter how far I might be
I’m always going to be your neighbour
There’s only one small planet where to be
So I’m always going to be your neighbour
We cannot hide, we can’t deny
That we’re always going to be neighbours
Your neighbour, my neighbour, we’re neighbours

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
CHORUS
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
CHORUS
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 You Allah

Lyrics:
I was so far from You
Yet to me You were always so close
I wandered lost in the dark
I closed my eyes
To all the signs You put in my way
I walked every day
Further and further away from You
Allah You brought me home
I thank You with every breath I take
Chorus:
Alhamdu Lillah, Alhamdu lillah
All praise is to Allah, All praise is to Allah
I never thought about
All the things You had given to me
I never thanked You once
I was too proud
To see the truth
And prostrate to You
Until I took the first step
And that’s when You opened the doors for me
And now, Allah, I realise what I was missing
By being far from You
Chorus
Allah I want to thank You
I want to thank You for all the things that You’ve done
You’ve done for me through all my years I’ve been lost
You guided me from all the ways that were wrong
Indeed You gave me hope
Oh Allah I want to thank You
I want to thank You for all the things that You’ve done
You’ve done for me through all my years I’ve been lost
You guided me from all the ways that were wrong
I want to thank You
For bringing me home

I want to thank You
For bringing me home

Mamma – Lyrics:
Every time I think of you
You always make me smile
Whenever I feel down
You know how to cheer me up
And every time I feel confused
And I don’t know which way to choose
One thing’s for sure
I can always count on you
When I am near or when I’m far
Or when I’m completely lost
In my heart I have no fear
‘Cause you’re my guiding star, oh
Chorus:
Mamma you know that I love you
No matter what I say or do
I can never thank you, oh
Mamma you know that I love you
You are the proof of what love can do
Truly you are God’s miracle, oh
You’re my shelter from the rain
You’re the shoulder I cry on
And whenever I feel pain
One touch from you and the pain is gone
And all I’ve ever dreamed to be
Is to make you proud of me
‘Cause never once
Did you turn your back on me
Your healing words, your tender touch
The warmth of your embrace
The beauty of your soul
Shine through your loving face, oh
CHORUS
Your name was the first word I’ve ever spoken
You held my hand through the first steps I’ve taken, oh
When I wasn’t well you watched me through the night
That is why Paradise is under your feet, oh
CHORUS

“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 :
In my mind
Foreign lands
Followed lines
On my hands
Tasted earth
Touched the skies
Swam the pools
Of my eyes
People talked
In their fear
Rumours always
Whispered here
Where and why,
From what shore
Who was I
Searching for
You can call me worshipper
You can call me follower
But I’m just a wanderer
In search of my lover
You can call it foolish
A kind of madness
But I’m just a wanderer
In search of my lover
Pushed and pulled
Through these worlds
Winding roads
I Crossed & curled
Pain & love
Hope & fear
In between
All unclear
Drunk on time,
Spin my thoughts
States of mind
Turning doors
Ask me now
Who I am
Turn your back
Or take my hand
You can call me worshipper
You can call me follower
But I’m just a wanderer
In search of my lover
You can call it foolish
A kind of madness
But I’m just a wanderer
In search of my lover
There’s a fire calling me
Burning me
Leading me
In to ecstasy
[You can call me worshiper
You can call me follower
But I’m just a wanderer
I’m search of my love]
[Round round round round round round round round]

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

We once had a Teacher
The Teacher of teachers,
He changed the world for the better
And made us better creatures,
Oh Allah we’ve shamed ourselves
We’ve strayed from Al-Mu’allim,
Surely we’ve wronged ourselves
What will we say in front him?
Oh Mu’allim…
[Chorus]
He was Muhammad salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam,
Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,
He was Muhammad salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam,
Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,
Teacher of all Mankind.
Abal Qasim (one of the names of the Prophet)
Ya Habibi ya Muhammad
(My beloved O Muhammad)
Ya Shafi’i ya Muhammad
(My intercessor O Muhammad)
Khayru khalqillahi Muhammad
(The best of Allah’s creation is Muhammad)
Ya Mustafa ya Imamal Mursalina
(O Chosen One, O Imam of the Messengers)
Ya Mustafa ya Shafi’al ‘Alamina
(O Chosen One, O intercessor of the worlds)
He prayed while others slept
While others ate he’d fast,
While they would laugh he wept
Until he breathed his last,
His only wish was for us to be
Among the ones who prosper,
Ya Mu’allim peace be upon you,
Truly you are our Teacher,
Oh Mu’allim..
[Chorus]
Ya Habibi ya Muhammad
(My beloved O Muhammad)
Ya Shafi’i ya Muhammad
(My intercessor O Muhammad)
Ya Rasuli ya Muhammad
(O My Messenger O Muhammad)
Ya Bashiri ya Muhammad

Ya Nadhiri ya Muhammad
(O warner O Muhammad)
‘Ishqu Qalbi ya Muhammad
(The love of my heart O Muhammad)
Nuru ‘Ayni ya Muhammad
(Light of my eye O Muhammad)
He taught us to be just and kind
And to feed the poor and hungry,
Help the wayfarer and the orphan child
And to not be cruel and miserly,
His speech was soft and gentle,
Like a mother stroking her child,
His mercy and compassion,
Were most radiant when he smiled

Lyrics :
I know how it feels to lose everything
Everything, oh
I have faced a wall
So high above the ground
I’ve dreamt for hours and hours
About the day, about the day
When I can say that nothing can hold me down
I will fight through all the pain
It’s a journey I will make
You can try
But you will never break this heart of mine again
Chorus:
Sometimes it feels like freedom is far away
But I know, yes I know
I will break all the chains, yeah
Sometimes it feels like nothing will ever change
But I know, yes I know
I will break all the chains
You wanna tear me apart but I am strong
I am strong
No matter how hard you try
I’ll never you let you see my tears
I’ve finally found the place where I belong
I belong
I’ll rise beyond and soar above my fears
I will fight through all the pain
It’s a journey I will make
You can try
But you will never break this heart of mine again
CHORUS
It’s not easy I know
Just gotta let it go
I will forgive, I will forgive
With all my heart and soul
God has given me
The courage that I need
So I can live, I can live
With honor and dignity
‘Cause I am free
Yes I am free

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.

Gathered here with my family
…My neighbours and my friends
Standing firm together against oppression holding hands
It doesn’t matter where you’re from
Or if you’re young, old, women or man
We’re here for the same reason; we want to take back our land
Oh God thank you..
For giving us the strength to hold on
And now we’re here together
Calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call, ooh oh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall, ooh no
We know you’re here with us
No more being prisoners in our homes
No more being afraid to talk
Our dream is just to be free, just to be free
Now when we’ve taking our first step
Towards a life of complete freedom
We can see our dream getting closer and closer, we’re almost there
Oh God thank you..
For giving us the strength to hold on
And now we’re here together
Calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call, ooh oh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall, ooh no
I can feel the pride in the air
And it makes me strong to see everyone
Standing together holding hands in unity
Shouting out loud demanding their right for freedom
…This is it and we’re not backing of
Oh God we know you hear our call
And we’re calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call, ooh oh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall, ooh no
We’re calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call, ooh oh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall, ooh no
We know you’re here with us

Gathered here with my family
…My neighbours and my friends
Standing firm together against oppression holding hands
It doesn’t matter where you’re from
Or if you’re young, old, women or man
We’re here for the same reason; we want to take back our land
Oh God thank you..
For giving us the strength to hold on
And now we’re here together
Calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call, ooh oh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall, ooh no
We know you’re here with us
No more being prisoners in our homes
No more being afraid to talk
Our dream is just to be free, just to be free
Now when we’ve taking our first step
Towards a life of complete freedom
We can see our dream getting closer and closer, we’re almost there
Oh God thank you..
For giving us the strength to hold on
And now we’re here together
Calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call, ooh oh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall, ooh no
I can feel the pride in the air
And it makes me strong to see everyone
Standing together holding hands in unity
Shouting out loud demanding their right for freedom
…This is it and we’re not backing of
Oh God we know you hear our call
And we’re calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call, ooh oh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall, ooh no
We’re calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call, ooh oh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall, ooh no
We know you’re here with us
