“Wahai Tuhan kami! Janganlah Engkau memesongkan hati kami sesudah Engkau beri petunjuk kepada kami, dan kurniakanlah kepada kami limpah rahmat dari sisiMu; sesungguhnya Engkau jualah Tuhan Yang melimpah-limpah pemberianNya. "[Ali Imran: 8]

Traveling Light


Traveling Light 
(Nasheed by Talib Al Habib)
Allah humma ihdina assirata al mustaqeem ya allah
Traveling on
Traveling light
Through the hills and valleys of my life
On this journey
This is pathless pathway
Never knowing when the end will come
Traveling light, baring answers, to the questions that I don’t yet know
Like a fragrance that has lost its flower,
I try to find my way back home
I have tasted something of Your love,
A nameless restlessness fills me
In my silences as I still hear Your voice echoing
Qun fidduniya ka anna ka Gareebun au abeerus sabeel
Live this life like wayfarer journeying
Like a stranger on his way back home
Traveling light
Trying to break the shackles that bind me to the things tempting me to stay
But the truly precious is as light as a feather and all else is memory that fades away
Traveling on, just like a river flowing past hearts more unmoving than a mountain stone
Why do you flow they say?
And where are you going?
Onwards ever onwards to the sea and home
Like a broken circle searching for that which will make me whole again
All this flowing streams yearning for the sea and UNITY
And UNITY
Allahumma ihdina assiratul mustaqeem ya allah
Waqallim kulu bana lillama tuhibbu fa ilaikal maseer un Rabbana…
Kun fi dunya kanaka galebun au abi ru raseebil
Live this life like wayfarer journeying
Like a stranger on his way back home
Traveling on
Traveling Light
A song of days and seasons
Springfall and winter
Like the day and the night
For with hope and fear
Of Patience and thankfulness
It’s the way that leads to paradise
Life goes on like a stream ever flowing
To the horizon on it’s winding way
Reluctantly joyfully you choose how you journey
But know that all rivers meet the sea one day
Every time I think I understand I touch a deeper mystery still
And in wonder my heart expands at Your INFINITY
Your INFINITY
Qun fidduniya ka anna ka Gareebun au abeerus sabeel
Live this life like wayfarer journeying
Like a stranger on his way back home
