Sami Yusuf Şarkı sözLeri

Al-Mu'allim

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
(O bearer of good news O 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

Du'a (Turkish)

Ne guzel yaratmissin nimetlerini
biz kullarina ey Yuce Allah
Nasil sukredelim verdigin bu kadar
ihsanlarina ey Yuce Allah
How beautiful are the blessings
You've bestowed upon us your servants O mighty Allah
How can we ever thank You
for all the bounties you've bestowed upon us O mighty Allah

[Nakarat]
Her zaman ismin dilimizde ey Allah, ey Allah
Her zaman askin kalbimizde ey Allah, ey Allah
Your name is always on our tongues
Your love is always in our hearts

Biz gunahkar, biz perisan,
Sen Rahimsin, hem de Rahman
Aglarim, yalvaririm,
Bagisla bizi...
We are reckless sinners
You are most merciful and most compassionate
I cry and implore You to forgive us

Kendimize yazik ettik,
Hak yolunda hata ettik,
Aglarim, yalvaririm,
Bagisla bizi...
We've wronged ourselves
From the way of truth we have strayed
I cry and implore You to forgive us

[Nakarat]

Sami Yusuf - Eid Song

Let us rejoice indeed
For this is the day of Eid

[Nakarat]
La ilaha illallah
Muhammad rasulallah
La ilaha illallah
Muhammad rasulallah
'Alayhi salatullah
'Alayhi salatullah

Children are wearing new clothes
Bright colours fill the streets
Their faces full of laughter
Their pockets full of sweets
Let us rejoice indeed
For this is the day of Eid

[Nakarat]

Mosques are full of worshippers
in rows straight and neat
Their Lord they remember, His name they repeat
Their hands are raised to the sky
They supplicate and plead
On this blessed day
Forgive us they entreat
Let us rejoice indeed
For this is the day of Eid

[Nakarat]

People are giving charity
And helping those in need
In giving they're competing
Today there is no greed
Let us rejoice indeed
For this is the day of Eid

[Nakarat]

Enemies embracing each other
All hatred is buried
Everyone is celebrating
Greeting everyone they meet
Let us rejoice indeed
For this is the day of Eid

Sami Yusuf - Free

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

[Nakarat]
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
And 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

Sami Yusuf - Hasbi Rabbi

O Allah the Almighty
Protect me and guide me
Through your love and mercy
Ya Allah don't deprive me
From beholding your beauty
O my Lord accept this plea

[Nakarat]
Hasbi rabbi jallallah
Ma fi qalbi ghayrullah

[Nakarat]

Hindi:
Wo tanha kaun hai
Badshah wo kaun hai
Meherba wo kaun hai

Kya unchi shan hai
Uskey sab nishan hai
Sab dilon ki jan hai

Turkish:
Affeder gunahi
Alemin padisahi
Yureklerin felahi

Isit Allah derdimi, bu ahlarimi
Rahmeyle, bagisla gunahlarimi
Hayreyle hem aksam hem sabahlarimi

[Nakarat]
Arabic:
Ya rabbal 'alamin
Salli 'ala Tahal amin
Fi kulli waqtin wa hin

Imla' qalbi bil yaqin
Thabbitni 'ala hadhad din
Waghfir li wal muslimin


[Nakarat]
Hasbi rabbi jallallah
Ma fi qalbi ghayrullah

Sami Yusuf - Make A Prayer

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 cosy on our armchairs
Will we not even make a prayer?

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 deaf, 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 what 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 cosy on our armchairs
Will we not even make a prayer?

Sami Yusuf - Muhammad (pbuh)

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...

[Nakarat]
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
