The Passing Traveller

I wanna go, where I’ll be happy

Gardens where rivers flow, eternally

I wanna go, see Allāh’s promises

To those believers who walked His path

I’m but a stranger in a hostile world

And I cannot savour this lie no more

Yā Allāhu

Yā Raẖmānu

Yā Raẖīm

Yā Mālik

Yā Qudd

Yā Salām

Yā Allāh

Guide me to Jannah

I wanna go, be with Allāh’s beloved

Sit in his company, see him smile

I wanna go, drink from the Well of Kawthar

The water for the Purest

Promised to Muḥammad

I’m but a traveller

On a hot summer’s day

Resting under a tree

Then went on my way

I wanna go, see my mother and father

Embrace them in my arms

Whisper I love you so

I wanna go see others I have lost

Hold them oh so close

Say I missed you so

I came in this world

Just passing through

And I wanna travel just like

Al Mu’minūn

Yā ‘Azīzu

Yā Jabbāru

Yā Khāliq

Yā Barī’

Yā Ghaffār

Yā Qahhār

Yā Allāh

Guide me to Jannah (Guide me to Jannah)

I wanna go, see our father Adam

His blessed brothers

All of the prophets honoured

I wanna go, see the righteous companions

Those who the Prophet loved

The best generation

I’m but a stranger

In this hostile world

And I cannot savour

This lie no more

I wanna go, finally be at peace

No worries no old age

Blissful eternity

I wanna go, see my palace in Jannah

Shining silk, silver gold

So beautiful forever

I’m but a traveller

Taking rest for a while

Soon will come a time

I’ll say goodbye

Yā Sami

Yā Basir

Yā Khabir

Yā ‘Aḏ̣īam

Yā Ghafūr

Yā Shakūr

Yā Allāh

Guide me to Jannah (Guide me to Jannah)

I wanna go

For the ultimate blessing

Be with Ar-Raẖmān

Allāhu-as-salām
