Blessed is your face <br />Blessed is your name <br />My beloved <br />Blessed is your smile <br />Which makes my soul want to fly <br />My beloved <br />All the nights <br />And all the times <br />That you cared for me <br />But I never realised it <br />And now it’s too late <br />Forgive me <br />Now I’m alone filled with so much shame <br />For all the years I caused you pain <br />If only I could sleep in your arms again <br />Mother I’m lost without you <br />You were the sun that brightened my day <br />Now who’s going to wipe my tears away <br />If only I knew what I know today <br />Mother I’m lost without you <br />Ummahu, ummahu, ya ummi <br />wa shawqahu ila luqyaki ya ummi <br />Ummuka, ummuka, ummuka ummuka <br />Qawlu rasulika <br />Fi qalbi, fi hulumi <br />Anti ma’i ya ummi <br />Mother… Mother… O my mother <br />How I long to see O mother <br />“Your mother, Your mother, Your mother” <br />Is the saying of your Prophet <br />In my heart, in my dreams <br />You are always with me mother <br />Ruhti wa taraktini <br />Ya nura ‘aynayya <br />Ya unsa layli <br />Ruhti wa taraktini <br />Man siwaki yahdhununi <br />Man siwaki yasturuni <br />Man siwaki yahrusuni <br />‘Afwaki ummi <br />Samihini… <br />You went and left me <br />O light of my eyes <br />O comfort of my nights <br />You went and left me <br />Who, other than you, will embrace me? <br />Who, other than you, will cover me? <br />Who, other than you, will guard over me? <br />Your pardon mother, forgive me.
