Mother don’t cry for me I am heading off to war
God almighty is my armour and sword
Palestine, Forever Palestine
Children being killed for throwing stones in the sky
They say to their parents don’t worry, God is on our side
Palestine, Forever Palestine
Mother don’t worry when they come for us at night
Surely they’ll be sorry when God puts them right
Tell me why they’re doing what was done to them
Don’t they know that God is with the oppressed and needy
Perished were the nations that ruled through tyranny
Palestine, Forever Palestine
Children of Palestine are fighting for their lives
They say to their parents we know that Palestine is our right
They to say to their parents we’ll fight for what is right
They say not to worry God is on our side
They say we’ll die for Palestine
Palestine, Forever Palestine

Sami yusuf- Without you-Not in my name
it not enough what you've done?
With all the bloodshed you've caused
Yet your greed drives you on
In your brutal race for acquisition
No land is left untouched
Driven by a vile ambition
To have the whole world in your clutch
Every single new addition
To your slave colony
Does nothing to dull your ambition
To leave no nation free
It is indeed a sad condition that you suffer from
This itching desire for a prime position
To have all under your thumb
Not in my name will you fight
Not in my name will you kill
Not in my name will you burn a child
Not in my name will you lie
Not in my name will you invade
Not in my name will you rape
Not in my name will you terrorise
Not in my name will you lie
I warn it's time to take heed
One day you'll find yourself pursued
By every person you've made bleed
You thought they'd been subdued
You were wrong
You were wrong
They've been freed
They've been freed
Against your evil methods of violence and intimidation
Against your hijacking and misinterpretation
Of my peaceful faith and revelation
I shout with billions in this demonstration
Not in my name will you fight
Not in my name will you kill
Not in my name will you burn a child
Not in my name will you lie
Not in my name will you invade
Not in my name will you rape
Not in our name
Will you dare to speak again
Not in our name
With all the bloodshed you've caused
Yet your greed drives you on
In your brutal race for acquisition
No land is left untouched
Driven by a vile ambition
To have the whole world in your clutch
Every single new addition
To your slave colony
Does nothing to dull your ambition
To leave no nation free
It is indeed a sad condition that you suffer from
This itching desire for a prime position
To have all under your thumb
Not in my name will you fight
Not in my name will you kill
Not in my name will you burn a child
Not in my name will you lie
Not in my name will you invade
Not in my name will you rape
Not in my name will you terrorise
Not in my name will you lie
I warn it's time to take heed
One day you'll find yourself pursued
By every person you've made bleed
You thought they'd been subdued
You were wrong
You were wrong
They've been freed
They've been freed
Against your evil methods of violence and intimidation
Against your hijacking and misinterpretation
Of my peaceful faith and revelation
I shout with billions in this demonstration
Not in my name will you fight
Not in my name will you kill
Not in my name will you burn a child
Not in my name will you lie
Not in my name will you invade
Not in my name will you rape
Not in our name
Will you dare to speak again
Not in our name
786 - ya Allah
ya Allah, please forgive me for the wrong i've done
ya Allah, give me another chance to prove that i can pass
please guide me and protect me along the straight path
and i know that i can make it, one day i'll be in heaven with you
brother, brother, (let me tell you) you ain't acting cool
lower your gaze, don't go astray, cuz you're looking like a fool
we all know (human nature) makes us ignorant sometimes
making us do some things we know just ain't right
what's the moral of the story fellaz?
you better watch your back
stay on the right track
don't try to act all wack
cuz it will all come back to you
and all you can say is
ya Allah, please forgive me for the wrong i've done
ya Allah, give me another chance to prove that i can pass
please guide me and protect me along the straight path
and i know that i can make it, one day i'll be in heaven with you
sister, don't your dare cry
cuz girl you know we all fall short sometimes
dust yourself off, stand tall, don't let it get you down
open your eyes to Allah, you'll see the beauty of
all the things that are going your way
hold your head up high, it'll be okay
Allah is merciful, the most forgiving
pray five times a day, and never stop giving
you gotta keep on Qur'an, keep Iman strong
and one day, insh'Allah, you'll be among the stars
for now you better pray girl
ya Allah, please forgive me for the wrong i've done
ya Allah, give me another chance to prove that i can pass
please guide me and protect me along the straight path
and i know that i can make it, one day i'll be in heaven with you
what's happening brother, i've got a message for you
there's a little something that i need you to do
see, you've been causing problems since you came my way
and i'm not trying to have that, ain't the way i play
i don't need no influence like you in my world
i'm just trying to live my life - simple and pure
you've been avoiding the Iman, don't even make salat
it's time to beg for some forgiveness from ya Allah
everybody sing it now
ya Allah, please forgive me for the wrong i've done
ya Allah, give me another chance to prove that i can pass
please guide me and protect me along the straight path
and i know that i can make it, one day i'll be in heaven with you
