(Arabic)
By Sami Yusuf
Blessed is your face
Blessed is your name
My beloved ...
Blessed is your smile
Which makes my soul want to fly
My beloved ....
All the nights And all the times
That you cared for me
But I never realised it
And now it’s too late
Forgive me
Now I’m alone filled with so much shame
For all the years I caused you pain
If only I could sleep in your arms again
Mother I’m lost without you
You were the sun that brightened my day
Now who’s going to wipe my tears away
If only I knew what I know today
Mother I’m lost without you
Ummahu, ummahu, ya ummi
(Mother... Mother... O my mother )
wa shawqahu ila luqyaki ya ummi
How I long to see O mother
Ummuka, ummuka, ummuka ummuka
“Your mother, Your mother, Your mother”
Qawlu rasulika Fi qalbi, fihulumi
Is the saying of your Prophet,In my heart, in my dreams
Anti ma’i ya ummi
You are always with me mother
Ruhti wa taraktini
You went and left me
Ya nura ‘aynayya
O light of my eyes
Ya unsa layli
O comfort of my nights
Ruhti wa taraktini
You went and left me
Man siwaki yahdhununi
Who, other than you, will embrace me?
Man siwaki yasturuni
Who, other than you, will cover me?
Man siwaki yahrusuni
Who, other than you, will guard over me?
‘Afwaki ummi Samihini...
Your pardon mother, forgive me
