Brighter than the sun Fairer than the moon Your beauty is so dazzling
Bigger than the sea Higher than the clouds Your soul is so enlightening
What I’d give to see your face Beaming with so much grace
Brighter than the sun Fairer than the moon Your beauty is so dazzling Bigger than the sea Higher than the clouds Your soul is so enlightening (x2)
CHORUS: Ya Mawlay, ya Mawlay Salli 'ala Taha (x2) husnu Ahmadal Bashir Akhjalal badral munir Oh my Lord, Send your peace and blessings on Taha (one of the prophet's names) The beauty of Ahmad the portent Ashamed the illuminative full moon
Will I be from those You welcome with a smile As you call your nation Come to my side
Or will I see you frown And then turn away I did let you down I forgot this Day
What I’d give to see your face Beaming with so much grace
Brighter than the sun Fairer than the moon Your beauty is so dazzling
Bigger than the sea Higher than the clouds Your soul is so enlightening
CHORUS
Bridge: Ya Habiba Allah Ya Safiyya Allah 'Alayka Salatu Allah Wa Salamu Allah Oh you the one who Allah loves Oh you the one who Allah chose May Allah's peace and blessing be upon you
Your smile is so bright It lits up the dark night Brought mercy and light To my waiting heart
I know that I’m weak Of my sins I can’t speak Your mercy I seek Though I’m not worthy
What I’d give to see your face Beaming with so much grace
Brighter than the sun Fairer than the moon Your beauty is so dazzling
Bigger than the sea Higher than the clouds Your soul is so enlightening
