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 realised 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
