Lyrics
O are you going to the city of Madinah?
Are you going to visit my beloved.
O are you going to the city of Madinah?
To be with Taha the best of all the Prophets.
And when you go to the city of Madinah, send my salam to our hearts’ delight,
send my salam to the best of all creation,
to him whose sight we yearn for every night.
And when you stand before him at his grave,
O won’t you ask for us his intercession.
And when you stand before him at his grave,
please don’t forget us in your supplication.
For he’s the one the weeping camel spoke to, and he’s the one the moaning trunk yearned for.
O he’s the one the trees and rocks greeted with,
assalamu ^alayka, ya Rasullallah.
So won’t you say when you face him at his grave assala mu ^alayka, ya Rasullallah.
Assalamu ^alayka ya Nabbiyyallah.
Assalamu ^alayka ya Habiballah.
O won’t you pray for us in al-Madinah.
Pray that Allah grants us his generosities,
pray by the virtue and the glory of our prophet
Nabiyy Muhammad, the Prophet of mercy.
