[Intro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, Lord
[Verse 1]
Hold 'em high, let me tell
Of marvels that once appeared
Shattering the cage of reason
Hubris and contumely
On this birth, a thousand signs
Shone from east and shone from west
Fragrance filled the earth and air
Rebel demon turned to flee
Can such light once have been not
When another creature was?
Can it be Heaven's intent
Not to hail him anciently?
[Chorus]
Pray my Lord and grant your blessings
Always eternally
Upon the Praised One, the companions
Oh, and family
Pray my Lord and grant your blessings
Always eternally
Upon the Praised One, the companions
Oh, and family
[Verse 2]
Did the angels not revere
As they bowed to Adam's form
He who was the purest heir
Of covenant and family?
Through God's justice, I am lost
My actions give me away
But His mercy to the world
Proclaims hope eternally
Though I fear my wayward ways
Still, my confidence is sure
For he's pleading in my case
Liberates me utterly
[Chorus]
Pray my Lord and grant your blessings
Always eternally
Upon the Praised One, the companions
Oh, and family
Pray my Lord and grant your blessings
Always eternally
Upon the Praised One, the companions
Oh, and family
[Bridge]
Ya rabbi salli ala'
Habibi wa ala'
Saadatteena aalihi
Wa sahbihil kirami
Ya rabbi salli ala'
Habibi wa ala'
Saadatteena aalihi
Wa sahbihil kirami
[Chorus]
Pray my Lord and grant your blessings
Always eternally
Upon the Praised One, the companions
Oh, and family
Pray my Lord and grant your blessings
Always eternally
Upon the Praised One, the companions
Oh, and family
