Try not to Cry, (featuring Outlandish) came in 2nd. Speaking of outlandish, my next poll asks for your favorite track from Closer Than Veins. Feel free to add a track not already listed and vote for that as well.
Not to be mean or anything, but the music is like dance music. You can do like Indian dances on it.
And its in urdu, wow.
He sounds like me when I am trying to speak urdu, lol!
I demand a recount.
lol, urdu definitely isnt Sami Yusuf’s first language.
and …Dance Music? I dunno about that… here are the lyrics (with translations in english):
O Allah
the Almighty
don’t deprive me
Protect me and guide me
To your love and mercy
Ya Allah
From beholding your beauty
O my Lord accept this plea
CHORUS:
Hasbi rabbi jallallah
Ma fi qalbi ghayrullah
My Lord is enough for me, Glory be to Allah
There is nothing in my heart except Allah
CHORUS
Hindi:
Wo tanha kaun hai
Badshah wo kaun hai
Meherba wo kaun hai
Who is the only One?
Who is the King?
Who is the Merciful?
Kya unchi shan hai
Uskey sab nishan hai
Sab dilon ki jan hai
Who is the most praised and benevolent?
Whatever you see in this world is His sign
He’s the love of every soul
CHORUS
Turkish:
Affeder gunahi
Alemin padisahi
Yureklerin penahi
He is the Forgiver of all sins
He is the King of the universe
He is the Refuge of all hearts
Isit Allah
derdimi, bu ahlarimi
hear my sorrows and my sighs
Rahmeyle, bagisla gunahlarimi
Hayreyle hem aksam hem sabahlarimi
O Allah
Have mercy and pardon my sins
Bless my night and days
CHORUS
Arabic:
Ya rabbal ‘alamin
Salli ‘ala Tahal amin
Fi kulli waqtin wa hin
O Lord of the worlds
Send peace and blessings
On Ta-ha the trustworthy
In every time and at every instant
Imla’ qalbi bil yaqin
Thabbitni ‘ala hadhad din
Waghfir li wal muslimin
Fill my heart with conviction
Make me steadfast on this Religion
And forgive me and all the believers
