محمد الحسيان | Muhammad Al-Hasyan

عرفتك يا رب |A3araftoka Ya Rabb | I knew You, O Lord




Nasheed by Muhammad Al-Hasyan Feat. Rayhan
Arabic Lyrics:
عرفتك يا رب قبل المتاب ** عرفتك مذ ذاق قلبي الصعاب
عرفتك والتيه في خاطري ** يروعني بالدقى والعذاب
عرفتك في كل شيء بدا ** وفي البحر أو في جمال الهضاب
وفي نسمات الهدا ذقتها ** نسيت بها الطيبات العدا
فيا رب صن قلبي عن نزغة ** تريه الضلال نقي الثياب
فجد بي بحبك نحو هداك ** وهبني رضاك وحسن مآب
(From http://almuhands.org/forum/showthread.php?t=62939 with minor editing)
English Lyrics:

CHORUS
Allahu Allahu Allahu Allah
Allahu Allahu Allahu Allah
(Repeats 3 times at the start)
I knew You, Oh Lord, [even] before I repented..
I knew You since my heart had a taste of hardship
CHORUS
I knew You, and misguidance was inside of me..
.. frightening me with hardship(?) and torture

CHORUS

I knew you in every thing that appeared..
and in the sea or in the beauty of the hills

(Repeats)
CHORUS

And in the breezes of guidance, I tasted them..
I forgot with them the many good things
CHORUS
So, Allah, preserve my heart from a temptation..
..which would show it misguidance in pure clothes

CHORUS
So excel me, with your love, towards your guidance..
And grant me your contentment and the best of places [in paradise].
CHORUS

Unknown Artist!

Salam Aleikum Brothers and Sisters; I seem to be encountering a slightly unusual problem today. During my usual browsing of YouTube I found a rather charming Nasheed that looks like a program intro on the Iqraa TV Channel. It starts off with انا مؤمن و الحب ترياقي or 'I am a believer and Love is the quencher of my thirst'. I love it because it has my name in it (mu'min, or believer)!The problem is I can't seem to find the title OR the name of the Artist! If anybody can help me out I'd really appreciate it and I might even consider sending you an edible treat! Anyways, here it is a la english lyrics! Enjoy!
انا مؤمن - Ana Mu'min - I am a Believer

(The following is a 'jisted translation' which tries to convey the 'feel' of the words rather than literally translating them. After all, that is the beauty of Poetry!)
Lyrics:
I am a Believer and Love is the quencher of my Thirst
And the generous virtues of Islam are my manners
I am a Muslim and Love is the quencher of my Thirst
And the generous virtues of Islam are my manners
Through my Love amongst People I declare it
Through my Love amongst People I declare it
My Religion, My Quran and My Pledge
My Religion, My Quran and My Pledge
The name of my Lord, in my Soul I repeat it
With all my Hopes and Yearnings
The name of my Lord, in my Soul I repeat it
With all my Hopes and Yearnings
My Love for my Lord and my Prophet and those..
..who are around me is the light of my soul and of my gardens
I am a Muslim and Love is the quencher of my Thirst
And the generous virtues of Islam are my manners
Through my Love amongst People I declare it
Through my Love amongst People I declare it
My Religion, My Quran and My Pledge
My love for my Brethren and for my Neighbours
Is a Pact which has seeped deep inside of me
My love for my Brethren and for my Neighbours
Is a Pact which has seeped deep inside of me
And for every human being on Earth..
is my love and tenderness and kind feelings
my love and tenderness and kind feelings
I am a Muslim and Love is the quencher of my Thirst
With
the generous virtues of Islam I fly High
Through my Love amongst People I declare it
(
My Religion, My Quran and My Pledge)
