I am currently listening to Sami Yusuf’s latest album, which was released almost two months ago.

I’ve heard the first two singles – Healing and You Came To Me during Ramadhan and I love them both. Now I’m listening the whole album and MashaAllah, it is beautiful.

I love Worries End and here are the lyrics:

Worry Ends Lyrics

Don’t be saddened by what you see
By all the lies and treachery
Life is cruel but don’t worry
In your heart lies the key
To unwind all the secrets
Of this life we see

When you feel you’ve lost it all
When you don’t know who’s your friend or foe
You wonder why you’re so alone
Worry ends when faith begins
Don’t be sad by what you see
It’s true life has its miseries
But one thing’s always worked for me
Worry ends when faith begins

Don’t be saddened by what you see
I know life can be crazy
A showcase of hypocrisy
In the form of piety
It’s just one big mystery
For you and me

I found my peace deep within
Calling inside
Follow what you feel is right
So trust your heart go ahead
Don’t lose sight
Follow that voice deep inside

When you feel you’ve lost it all
When you don’t know who’s your friend or foe
You wonder what you’re so alone
Worry ends when faith begins

Don’t be sad by what you see
It’s true life has it’s miseries
But one thing’s always worked for me
Worry ends when faith begins

If you’re weak it’s not a crime
Don’t you know it’s blessing in disguise
To know who’s honest and who spread lies
Worry ends when faith begins

Don’t be sad by what you see
It’s true life has it’s miseries
But one thing’s always worked for me
Worry ends when faith begins

Next is this one:

Trials Of Life Lyrics

My life is not the same
When I’m too concerned by what they say
Why should I? When I have you
To doubt you would be the worst mistake

Deep inside I know
That amidst all the darkness
And everything, which makes no sense
I know that you exist
You are the light
That guides me through my darkest nights
That shows me right from wrong in life
In a world that often lies

Cause I don’t need anyone
Nor anything in life
But You
No I don’t need anyone
To show me my way
No I don’t need anyone
But You

Trials of life upon me
Are more precious than diamonds and gold
Tested with fire I may be
But I know I’ll come out stronger in this world

Deep inside I know
That amidst all the darkness
And everything, which makes no sense
I know that you exist
You are the light
That guides me through my darkest nights
That shows me right from wrong in life
In a world that often lies

Cause I don’t need anyone
Nor anything in life
But You
No I don’t need anyone
To show me my way
No I don’t need anyone
But You

I only want the things
You know is best for me
I’d gladly sacrifice
If that’s what you decree
I would break and
Mourn in eternity
Perish into the sea
If that’s what you want for me

I also love this:

Wherever You Are Lyrics

My best times
Were when I felt close to you
But everything fell apart
The moment I strayed from you

In each smile
In every single sigh
Every minute detail
Traces of you are found there

Wherever you are I’ll find you
Cause you’re the one I turn to
Wherever you be I’ll be with you
Cause you’re the one my heart is to
I need you

To see your smile
I would pass every trial
Desperately I await
For the day when I’m by your side

Wherever you are I’ll find you
Cause you’re the one I turn to
Wherever you are I’ll follow you
Cause you’re the one I turn to
Wherever you be I’ll be with you
Cause you’re the one my love is to
My love is to

Wherever you may be
I’ll follow till I see
In my heart you will be
Your love is all I need

In every single smile
Every single sigh
Every minute detail
Traces of you are there

Wherever you may be
I will search till we meet
In my heart you will be
Your love is all I need

Wherever you may be

And I love this one too. So soothing and he sings in different languages, including Malay. Sweet!

No Word Is Worthy Lyrics

(ENGLISH)
Searched for the words
To describe your beauty
No matter how I tried
No word seemed worthy
Struggled to find
The right words for You
Words just fail to describe
What’s deep inside

Subhan Allah, Wa alhamdulillah, la illaha il Allah, wa Allahu Akbar

(URDU)
Zemmeen Aseman, Jinn-o-Insaa bhi
(Earth and the Heavens, Jinn and Mankind)

Teri taa’reefein, Kartey bayan sabhi
(All praise Thee)

Bekhud huey, Dono jahan hi
(So both worlds become intoxicated)

Ruh se nikley, Jab ye kalma…Subhan Allah…
(When the soul recites this one word…Subhan Allah)

Subhan Allah, Wa alhamdulillah, la illaha il Allah, wa Allahu Akbar
(FARSI)
Dar havaye To
(In Your remembrance)

Par migoshaayam
(I spread my wings)

Be omidi ke roozi
(In hope for the day)

Sooye To ayam
(I come to You)

Dar vasfe To
(In describing You)

Jomleha ra gashtam
(I searched sentences)

Kalameyi najostam
(I found no word)

Joz inke gooyam
(Except to say)

Subhan Allah, Wa alhamdulillah, la illaha il Allah, wa Allahu Akbar

(MALAY)

Ku mencari kata puji
(I searched for words to praise You with)

Moga menjadi zikir hati
(Words to instill Your remembrance in my heart)

Namun tiada kalam yang pasti
(But no words are assuring enough)

Yang sesuci kalam ini
(As sacred as these)

Subhan Allah, Wa alhamdulillah, la illaha il Allah, wa Allahu Akbar

And this:

Make Me Strong Lyrics

I know I’m waiting
Waiting for something
Something to happen to me
But this waiting comes with
Trials and challenges
Nothing in life is free
I wish that somehow
You’d tell me out aloud
That on that day I’ll be ok
But we’ll never know cause
That’s not the way it works
Help me find my way

My Lord show me right from wrong
Give me light make me strong
I know the road is long
Make me strong
Sometimes it just gets too much
I feel that I’ve lost touch
I know the road is long
Make me strong

I know I’m waiting
Yearning for something
Something known only to me
This waiting comes with
Trials and challenges
Life is one mystery
I wish that somehow
You’d tell me out aloud
That on that day you’ll forgive me
But we’ll never know cause
That’s not the way it works
I beg for your mercy

My Lord show me right from wrong
Give me light make me strong
I know the road is long
Make me strong
Sometimes it just gets too much
I feel that I’ve lost touch
I know the road is long
Make me strong

Well, I love all of them but these are the best. I am lyrical of course so I love them not only because of the rhythm but also the lyrics. Well you should know by now ;)

I love the lyrics because they somehow reflect my life, what I’ve been through and they are a reminder for me that I am not alone. :)

Thank you Sami Yusuf for this beautiful album.

So yes, I do recommend you to buy his album from Itunes or music stores. It’s really worth it, every penny. Trust me ;)

PS: Love the Chinese Calligraphy :)
