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 realized 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
wa shawqahu
ila luqyaki ya ummi
Ummuka, ummuka, ummuka ummuka
Qawlu rasulika
Fi
qalbi, fi hulumi
Anti ma’i ya ummi
Mother... Mother... O my
mother
How I long to see O mother
“Your mother, Your mother, Your
mother”
Is the saying of your Prophet
In my heart, in my dreams
You
are always with me mother
Ruhti wa
taraktini
Ya nura ‘aynayya
Ya unsa layli
Ruhti wa taraktini
Man
siwaki yahdhununi
Man siwaki yasturuni
Man siwaki yahrusuni
‘Afwaki
ummi
Samihini...
You went and left me
O light of my eyes
O
comfort of my nights
You went and left me
Who, other than you, will
embrace me?
Who, other than you, will cover me?
Who, other than you,
will guard over me?
Your pardon mother, forgive me
