YUSUF ISLAM
"Tala' Al Badru 'Alayna"

Tala al Badru 'Alayna
Min Thaniyati-al Wada'
Wajaba Shukru 'Alayna
Ma da'a lillahi da'

O the white moon rose over us
From the valley of Wada'
And we owe it to show gratefulness
Where the call is to Allah

Ayyuha-al Mab'uthu feena
Ji'ta bi-al amru muta'
Ji'ta sharafta-al Madeenah
Marhaban ya khayra da'

Oh you, who were raised among us
Coming with a word to be obeyed
You have brought to this city nobleness,
Welcome best caller to God's way

Tala al Badru 'Alayna
Min Thaniyati-al Wada'
Wajaba Shukru 'Alayna
Ma da'a lillahi da'
