Waiting For The Call by Irfan Makki



Miles away, oceans apart
never in my sight but always in my heart
the love is always there it will never die
only growing stronger a tears rose down my eye

I am thiking all the time
when the day will come
standing there before you
accept this Hajj of mine

standing in ihram, making my tawaf
drinking blessings from your well
the challenges that I have suffered
and might were rekindles my imaan

O Allah! I am waiting for the call
praying for the day when I can be near the Kabah wall
O Allah! I am waiting for the call
praying for the day when I can be near the Kabah wall

I feel alive and I feel strong
I can feel Islam running in my Veins
to see my muslim brothers, their purpose all the same
greeting one another, exalting one True Name
I truly hope one day that everyone's a Muslim.
that they remember you in everything they say

standing in ihram making my tawaf, making my tawaf
drinking blessings from your well
the challenges that I have suffered
and might were rekindles my imaan

O Allah! I am waiting for the call
praying for the day when I can be near the Kabah wall
O Allah! I am waiting for the call
praying for the day when I can be near the Kabah wall

Miles away

Freedom by Maher Zain



Gathered here with my family
…My neighbours and my friends
Standing firm together against oppression holding hands
It doesn’t matter where you’re from
Or if you’re young, old, women or man
We’re here for the same reason; we want to take back our land

Oh God thank you
For giving us the strength to hold on
And now we’re here together

Calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call ooh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall oh
We know you’re here with us

No more being prisoners in our homes
No more being afraid to talk
Our dream is just to be free, just to be free
Now when we’ve taking our first step
Towards a life of complete freedom
We can see our dream getting closer and closer, we’re almost there

Oh God thank you
For giving us the strength to hold on
And now we’re here together

Calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call ooh
We’re calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall oh
We know you’re here with us

I can feel the pride in the air
And it makes me strong to see everyone
Standing together holding hands in unity
Shouting out load demanding their right for freedom
This is it and we’re not backing of
Oh God we know you hear our call

And we’re calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call ooh
We’re calling for freedom, calling for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall oh
We know you’re here with us

For the Rest of My Life - Maher Zain

I praise Allah for sending me you my love
You've found your home it's here with me, and I'm here with you
Now let me let you know
You've opened my heart
I was always thinking that love was wrong
But everything was changed when you came along, oh
And there's a couple of words I want to say

Chorus:
For the rest of my life, I'll be with you
I'll stay by your side, honest and true
Till the end of my time, I'll be loving you, loving you
For the rest of my life, through days and nights
I'll thank Allah for opening my eyes
Now and forever I, I'll be there for you
I know it deep in my heart


I feel so blessed when I think of you
And I ask Allah to bless all we do
You're my wife, and my friend and my strength
And I pray we're together in Jannah
Finally now I've found my self, I feel so strong
Yes everything was changed when you came along, oh
And there's a couple of words I want to say

Chorus

And now that you're here, in front of me
I strongly feel love
And I have no doubt, and I'll sing it loud
And that I will love you eternally

Chorus
