Traveling Light | Talib Al Habib (Mix)

Allah humma ihdina
Assirat al mustaqeem ya Allah

Traveling on, traveling light
Through the hills and valleys of my life

On this journey, this pathless pathway
Never knowing when the end will come

Traveling light, bearing answers
To the questions that I don’t yet know

Like a fragrance that has lost its flower
I try to find my way back home

I have tasted something of your love
A nameless breathlessness fills me

In my silence
As I still hear your voice, echoing

Kun fiddunya ka annaka
Ghareebon ao abirus sabeel

Live this life like a wayfarer journeying
Like a stranger on his way back home

Traveling light trying to break the shackles that
Bind me to the things tempting me to stay

But the truly precious is as light as a feather
And all else is memory that fades away

Traveling on, just like a river flowing past
Heart more unmoving than a mountain stone

Why do you flow they say?
And where are you going?
Onwards ever onwards to the sea and home

Like a broken circle searching for
That which will make me whole again

All this flowing streams yearning for
The sea and unity

Allah humma ihdina
Assirat al mustaqeem ya Allah

Waqallim qulubana illama tuhibbu
Fa illaykal maseeru rabbana

Kun fiddunya ka annaka
Ghareebon ao abirus sabeel

Live this life like a wayfarer journeying
Like a stranger on his way back home

Traveling light, a song of days and seasons
Spring follows winter like the day and the night

From the broken fear of patience and thankfulness
Mark away that leads to paradise

Life goes on like a stream eve-flowing
To the horizons on its winding way

Reluctantly joyfully you choose how you journey
But know that rivers meet the sea one day

Everytime I think I understand
I touch a deeper mystery still

And in wonder
My heart expands at your infinity

Kun fiddunya ka annaka
Ghareebon ao abirus sabeel

Live this life like a wayfarer journeying
Like a stranger on his way back home
