Sami Yusuf - al-Mualim

Assalamualaikum,
First time i listened to this song,"okeyla jgk",
but i think this song like boring because the song is slow,
And then came my younger brother listened to it,
yeah! I admit, he liked attract me to listen to this song again,
and when i asked him, "Best ke lagu tu?", "Best"
At that time , i repeated listen to the song again,
I admit, actually, not the song that make me to addict to hear it again,
but the lyric,YUP! the lyric.
It has the beautiful meaning..



Lyrics:

We once had a Teacher 
The Teacher of teachers,
He changed the world for the better 
And made us better creatures,
Oh Allah weve shamed ourselves
Weve strayed from Al-Mu'allim,
Surely weve 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 Allahs 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 hed 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


Chorus
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 Allahs 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)
