Nasimi
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:
I know I’m waiting
Waiting for something
Something to happen to me
But this waiting comes with
Trials and challenges
Nothing in life is free
I wish that somehow
You’d tell me out aloud
That on that day I’ll be ok
But we’ll never know cause
That’s not the way it works
Help me find my way
My Lord show me right from wrong
Give me light make me strong
I know the road is long
Make me strong
Sometimes it just gets too much
I feel that I’ve lost touch
I know the road is long
Make me strong
I know I’m waiting
Yearning for something
Something known only to me
This waiting comes with
Trials and challenges
Life is one mystery
I wish that somehow
You’d tell me out aloud
That on that day you’ll forgive me
But we’ll never know cause
That’s not the way it works
I beg for your mercy
My Lord show me right from wrong
Give me light make me strong
I know the road is long
Make me strong
Sometimes it just gets too much
I feel that I’ve lost touch
I know the road is long
Make me strong

One light, one hope
One heart, one soul
One chance to know
One time to go
There’s just one call from my heart
It pulls me to a world apart
There’s just one word that I hear
One drum, that calls me near
When the spring has been unwound
What is lost will soon be found
To the call that comes from inside you
To the light that shines just to find you
Go
To the drum that beats from inside you
To the one that’s calling to find you
Go
I know, know I must go, go
I know, know I must go, go
I must go
One light, one hope
One heart, one soul
One chance to know
One time to go
In the mirror you stare
Your eyes are calling me there
Your friend has taken my hand
Guides me beyond any land
If you’re far I’ll soon be near
What is faint will soon be clear
To the call that comes from inside you
To the light that shines just to find you
Go
To the drum that beats from inside you
To the one that’s calling to find you
Go
I know, know I must go, go
I know, know I must go, go
I must go
One light, one hope
One heart, one soul
One chance to know
One time to go
On to the drum
To the voice of the one
I must go, I must follow the
Spark that lights us all
Illuminated by the call
With one heart, with one hope I will
Go, go, I must go, go
I know, know, I must go, go
I must go
And I know, know I must go, go
I know, know I must go, go

Mawlaya – Lyrics:
Bu yürek hep senle varolur yalniz senle coşar
Dile gelse tüm şiirler söylenmemiş şarkilar
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

Lyrics:
When we were so lost in the darkness
You brought us the light of true guidance
When we were about to lose our hope
From the sky God sent us one rope
We don’t ever wanna let it go
We are never gonna be apart
We are always here on your way with each other
and together, we will sing:
الكونُ كان في ليلٍ طويلْ
وكُنتَ أنتَ الضِّيا والسبيلْ
لأنّني قد تبِعتُ خُطاكْ
يشقّ دربي سمَا المُستحيلْ
أشتاقُ دومًا ليومِ لِقاكْ
ومن سواكَ للقلبِ دليلْ
چشماتو وا کردی انگار
شادی چشمک به دنیا زد
شد خلاصه راز خلقت
با یه لبخندت محمد
کاشکی منو یبار تو رویا
بشه بگیری به آغوشم
تا که نفسات برا قلبم سامون شن
بارون شن، تا آروم شم
نورُهُ قد بدى، و جلى للغيهَبِ
نور او منجلی شد و تاریکی را محو کرد
قلوبنا توحدت، علی حب النبي
قلب های ما یکی شدند، بر عشق پیامبر

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

Lyrics:
يا سَعدَ عُيوني حين أراه
Oh how happy my eyes are when I see him
يا طُولَ حَنيني كَي ألقاه
Oh how long have I been waiting to meet him
أنوارُ الدنيا بعضُ سَناه
The world’s light is a beam from his light
ونسيمُ الجنة بعضُ شَذاه
And the breeze of Paradise is from his beautiful scent
ياشفاءً للعليل
You are the cure for the sick
يا دواءً للمُعذَّب
You are the medicine for the one in pain
بيننا دهرٌ طويل
The distance between us is long
ولكَ القلبُ تشرَّب
And for you the heart is longing
يا نبيّي يا رسولي
O my Prophet, O my Messenger
يا شَفيعي يا حبيبي
O my Intersessor, O my Beloved
يا نَوالي يا وُصُولي
You are my aim, my destination

Allahu – Lyrics:
Chorus:
Jahan bhi dekun Allahu
Har khayal har guftugu
Jahan bhi jaoon Allahu
Mileen mujhae har manzilaen
(Wherever I look Allah is there
In every thought and every conversation
Wherever I go Allah is there
I’ve reached my journey’s end)
I’ll keep on searching; I know I’ll find Him
He is beside me; He’s always close to my heart
Always in my heart; we are never far apart
I always think of Him when I feel I cannot go on
Chorus
I’ll keep on moving; with every step I take
I’ll feel Him closer; I’ll never lose my way
I always turn to Him when my faith is wearing thin
I always remember He is Al-Baseeru (the All-Seeing)
Chorus
I’ll keep on praying for Him to guide me
I won’t lose my patience, believers always come through
Always there for me, especially in my time of need
I raise my hands and I know He’s listening to me

Toujous Proche (Always Be There) Lyrics:
Allahou Akbar.. Allahou Akbar.. Allahou Akbarou Allahou Akbarou Allah…
Si tu cherches ce qu’est l’amour, et ce que moi, j’en dis
Je te dévoilerais
Que tout émane d’Allah, l’Ivresse pur, pour nos âmes
Il est ton Créateur, et le miens,
Celui des cieux et de tout l’univers
Il nous accorde la vie, Il est
Le Protecteur de ceux qui croient en Lui
Chorus:
Et quand les temps sont rudes
Que tu te sens perdu
Souviens-toi sa promesse
Il est toujours proche
Son Amour nous étreint
Sa clémence nous enveloppe
Souviens-toi sa promesse
Il est toujours proche
Sur nous, Il veille sans cesse, nous guide
Il connaît le tréfonds de nos cœurs
Alors quand tu cherches ta voie
Vers Allah tournes-toi
Souviens-toi sa promesse
Il est toujours proche
Il nous conduit de l’obscurité vers la lumière, SoubhanAllah
De toute chose Il est capable
Rien ne devrait jamais nous faire peur, tant que nous implorons
Sa guidance, ici-bas
Le temps nous est compté dans cette vie
Bientôt place à l’au-delà, dans Ses jardins nous serons tous comblés de bonheur

Du’a (Turkish) – Sami Yusuf
DESCRIPTION:
Experience the beauty and unity of diverse musical traditions with Sami Yusuf’s
latest release, ‘One.’ Recorded live at the Holland Festival in June 2022,
this piece showcases exceptional artistry from Cappella Amsterdam,
the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra, and Sami Yusuf’s own ensemble.
Composed and arranged by Sami Yusuf,
‘One’ is a stunning blend of Western European vocal performance and the dynamic
rhythms of Andalusian, North African and Middle Eastern instruments including the ney,
violin, qanun, santur and percussions.
The German words by Meister Eckhart and Arabic poetry by Abu al-Hasan al-Shushtari
speak of the Eternal I and the unity of vision, emphasising the separate beauty of
each path and their underlying unity.
Performed in E Flat with allusions to maqām Nahāwand,
‘One’ opens with Cappella Amsterdam’s hauntingly beautiful vocals,
transitioning to the richly textured and dynamic rhythms of Amsterdam
Andalusian Orchestra, culminating in a mesmerising santur and percussion performance
by Sami Yusuf’s ensemble.
‘One’ invites you to experience the oneness of the human spirit in art.
