Heartsong | Talib Al Habib (English)
Subhan allahee
Wal hamdulillahee
La ilaha il allahu
Wal allahu akbar
Hear now my heartsong
My heart calls to you that
You guide me my lord
Through my soul’s long dark night
I send my heartsong
Across the empty silences to you
May you fill me with peace
And with light
Lost in an ocean
Of doubt and confusion
Am I seeking your burning beacon light
Strengthen my hand and my heart
When I faulter for I can not
Weaken if you are with me
Subhan allahee
Wal hamdulillahee
La ilaha il allahu
Wal allahu akbar
Best beyond foot is this
Path I wonder the way of
The heart is a long
Road and hard
Send me a light and
A lantern to guide me
This world weary traveller is
Yearning for home
Yet still I stumble ever-oft
A wandering soul among the lost
Searching for the way that
Leads back to you
Would that I had the wings of
Gabriel to bear me aloft
To the lord of the throne
Subhan allahee
Wal hamdulillahee
La ilaha il allahu
Wal allahu akbar
Oh how blessed
Are those who have found you
Their hearts contemplating
The light of your love
So let this be the pray of the traveller
Who yearns for you
Oh lord guide me gently
To my jouneys end
Subhan allahee
Wal hamdulillahee
La ilaha il allahu
Wal allahu akbar
Hear now my heartsong
My heart calls to you that
You guide me my lord
Through my soul’s long dark night
I send my heartsong
Across the empty silences to you
May you fill me with peace
And with light
Subhan allahee
Wal hamdulillahee
La ilaha il allahu
Wal allahu akbar
