AL- MUALLIM- SAMI YUSUF

pertama kali denger lagunya.......hmm....gue langsung jatuh cinta..: )
suaranya...liriknya..menyentuh banget. walau dibawakan dengan bahasa Inggris, tapi bisa dinikmati..

bisa dirasakan kalo ini dinyanyikan oleh hati. liriknya punya arti yang dalam ( ceile..ngerti kaga artinya..:) ),,

yup, hampir sebagian lirik lagunya berbahasa inggris, tapi ketika mendengar...lembut, teduh, syahduu...seakan kita bisa merasakan kedalaman liriknya.....

ahh....sami yusuf ! aku kira cuma ada satu yusuf di negri paman sam itu,,it's Yusuf Islam, dia yang telah beralih dari seorang selebritis dunia menjadi hamba Allah yang sejati ( amiin..), seseorang yang tadinya hanya menyanyikan syair-syair dunia kini beralih kepada syair langit....

dan yusuf yang satu lagi, sami Yusuf. telah membuat gue jatuh cinta dengan lagu-lagunya yang bernuansa religius. apalagi ketika mendengar lagu " Al-muallim"....duhhh...syahdu banget....jadi tambah cinta sama Rasulullah.... :)

AL- MUALLIM_ SAMI YUSUF



We once had a Teacher
The Teacher of teachers,
He changed the world for the better
And made us better creatures,
Oh Allah we’ve shamed ourselves
We’ve strayed from Al-Mu'allim,
Surely we’ve wronged ourselves
What will we say in front him?
Oh Mu'allim...

Chorus
He was Muhammad salla Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam,
Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,
He was Muhammad salla Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam,
Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,
Teacher of all Mankind.
Abal Qasim [one of the names of the Prophet]
Ya Habibi ya Muhammad
(My beloved O Muhammad)
Ya Shafi'i ya Muhammad
(My intercessor O Muhammad)
Khayru khalqillahi Muhammad
(The best of Allah’s creation is Muhammad)
Ya Mustafa ya Imamal Mursalina
(O Chosen One, O Imam of the Messengers)
Ya Mustafa ya Shafi'al 'Alamina
(O Chosen One, O intercessor of the worlds)
He prayed while others slept
While others ate he’d fast,
While they would laugh he wept
Until he breathed his last,
His only wish was for us to be
Among the ones who prosper,
Ya Mu'allim peace be upon you,
Truly you are our Teacher,
Oh Mu'allim..

Chorus
Ya Habibi ya Muhammad
(My beloved O Muhammad)
Ya Shafi'i ya Muhammad
(My intercessor O Muhammad)
Ya Rasuli ya Muhammad
(O My Messenger O Muhammad)
Ya Bashiri ya Muhammad
(O bearer of good news O Muhammad)
Ya Nadhiri ya Muhammad
(O warner O Muhammad)
'Ishqu Qalbi ya Muhammad
(The love of my heart O Muhammad)
Nuru 'Ayni ya Muhammad
(Light of my eye O Muhammad)
He taught us to be just and kind
And to feed the poor and hungry,
Help the wayfarer and the orphan child
And to not be cruel and miserly,
His speech was soft and gentle,
Like a mother stroking her child,
His mercy and compassion,
Were most radiant when he smiled
