about

This track is about the Hajj or pilgrimage journey itself. Professing a call to Allah, a knocking on the door of His Mercy and attention, standing at the house of God in Mecca (Ka'ba) . We submit ourselves with sincerity devout of ego to Allah, melted in His love.

A mixture of Arabic, English and Urdu. The track begins with the recitation of a beautiful prayer, and moves to expressing our presence and desire to change our destiny for a better and fulfilled one yearning for God’s greater consideration and deeper love ‘ we pilgrims take this journey to change our destiny’.

The recitation of the talbiyah of the Prophet (pbuh), undertaken by pilgrims as they advance towards Ka’ba in Mecca resonates with millions of Muslims around the Globe,

lyrics

We are here


ALLAH Hu Akbar. ALLAH Hu Akbar.
ALLAH Hu Akbar kabeera
Wal hamdullilahi kaseera
Wa subhaanallahil azeem
Wa hamdihil kareem
Bukrathaw wa aseela
Rabbi adkhilni mudkhala sidqin
Wa akhrijni mukhraja sidqin
Waj 'alni mil ladunka sultaan nan naseera

We pilgrims take this journey
Changing our destiny
Drawing closer to the One
One and only Rabbi
Sovereign Lord, our Lord
Lord of all rich and poor
We pray to You, The Almighty
Tears flowing, hearts lofty
Write our names amongst those blessed
Following ar-Rasulul-‘Arabi’

Haazir hein haazir hein haazir hein hum
Haazir hein haazir hein haazir hein hum
Labayk Allahumma labayk labayk labayk
Allahumma labayk
La shareeka laka labayk
Innal-hamda wan-ni’mata
Laka wal-mulk,
La shareeka lak

Glory to You and Praise
You are Unique, Most Rare
Granter of our hearts despair
You’re the answer to our prayer
We’re advancing to You
Ever closer in haste
No existence only You
There is none like unto You
We are full of neglect and shame

We are here. We are here.
At your door so so near
In Your presence Ya Allah.
In heaven Ya Allah.
