Gift of Life by Talib al-Habib
chorus Allahuma ’rzuqna murafaqat al-auliya Wa’j`al
lana waliyyan murshida
I’m calling out your name Oh hear me, guiding friend
Life was so
deluding In darkness I was drowning There came a light so bright Illuminated life.
Since first I saw your
beauty Your serenity and mercy My heart has overflowed With thanks to Allah
For all the love you gave me And
the wisdom that you taught me And the kindness in your eyes Gift of life
Allahuma’r’zuqna
murafaqat al-auliya Wa’j`al lana waliyyan murshida You gave me the gift of life The yearning for paradise The
secret of how to love Allah
My heart in deepest wonder Unfolds a mystery
The secret of existence A life
of love and giving To strive and sacrifice To guide the lost to light
Like the moonlight on the water Like
the sun of the mid-morning Like the star-strewn field of heaven You shine and guide
Like a mirror-glass, reflecting In
your soul shines the perfection Of the chosen and beloved Mustafa.
Allahuma’rzuq-na murafaqat
al-auliya Wa’j`al lana waliyyan murshida Waffiq-na wa’hdina tariqat al-muqaddasa Tahdi
ila jannatin wa rida’ik.
You gave me the gift of life The yearning for paradise The secret of how
to love Allah And my heart soars in gratitude And prayer that Allah give to you The shelter of his mercy and his
peace. Gift of Life.
