Ya Habibi Sayyidi (SAW) by Talib al-Habib
Ya Habibi Sayyidi: the closing song on the album is, fittingly, a beautiful soaring salam (greeting) in praise of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (s). As with Beloved Nabi, it concerns itself less with the attributes of the beloved than with the emotion and yearning that it causes in the heart of the lover. It ends the album with the plea to the Prophet (s) to, 'bless this seeker of your love with the vision of you.'
Ya Habibi Sayyidi by Talib al-Habib
chorus
As-salamu alayka ya habibi sayyidi,
As-salamu alayka ya nabi al-`arabi
As-salamu alayka ya habibi sayyidi
As-salamu alayka ya nabi al-`arabi
As-salamu alayka ya shafi` al-muznibin
As-salamu alayka rahamtallah lil `alamin
With every breath I take, every beating of my heart
In word and silence let there be peace upon you.
Oh fountain of perfection, oh ocean of peace
Oh healer of broken hearts, how much longer shall we be apart?
With every step I take towards your resting place
Heart filled with restlessness, my eyes full of tears
If my soul could take flight, carry me through this night
I would travel to Madina to stand, eyes downcast, before you
Like the sun you rose over us, bringing light to our darkened world
Purified by your wisdom, sanctified by your love
And we follow in your way, along the path that you have made
Let us reach our goal at last – take our hands, lead our hearts
Allah’s peace on you Ya Nabi, in every eye-blink and every tear
From the dawn of creation till the last day shall come
When the faithful remember you, when the heedless forget
May you rest in the mercy and the peace of the Almighty.
Oh beloved of the Lord, hear my greeting, hear my call
Bless this seeker of your love with the vision of you.
(Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam)
