He stepped inside his home, so he overwhelmed with fear An angel came with words from God, things were still unclear Saying read - read, but he couldn't read, amazing words he heard A trembling deep inside his heart, confused by what had occurred
There was only one who could comfort him And help him see the light To ease his fears, to reassure Was khadijah, his wife
Chorus: He said Zamilooni, Zamilooni, Dathirooni, Dathirooni, (Envelop me, Embrace me) A mighty task has come before me I need you here with me By my side
She was a woman of nobility, successful in all her trade Many wealthy men had asked for her, she turned them all away But when she saw Muhammad, a shining moon, may peace be on his soul He was a light for her ??? so right for her ??? her life will now be whole
But she had never seen him so distressed, as he was there that day She would comfort him, and hold him tight, and chase his doubts away
We look for stories of love, in places dark and cold When we have a guiding light, for the whole world to behold But were so selfish in our ways, and to the ones we hold so close Our own pleasure and happiness is what we value most
But she sacrificed all her wealth and everything she had And he honored her, and gave her faith, when the times were bad, when times were bad...
Now years have passed, times had changed, since khadijah breathed her last. And the Message of the one true God, was spreading far and vast But then he came across a jewellery, that khajidah had once worn His eyes began to swell with tears, his heart began to mourn
Cause she was there for him, when times were rough, and his enemies were cruel She was the first believer, so keen and eager, to comfort ar-Rasool
Mawlaya salli wa sallim da'iman abadan 'Ala habibika khayril khalqi kullihimi...Rasullullah (O my Leader, send your salutations and blessings forever Upon Your Beloved, the best of the whole of creation)
