Blessed is your face 
Blessed is your name 
My beloved 
Blessed is your smile 
Which makes my soul want to fly 
My beloved 
All the nights 
And all the times 
That you cared for me 
But I never realised it 
And now it’s too late 
Forgive me 

Now I’m alone filled with so much shame 
For all the years I caused you pain 
If only I could sleep in your arms again 
Mother I’m lost without you 

You were the sun that brightened my day 
Now who’s going to wipe my tears away 
If only I knew what I know today 
Mother I’m lost without you 

Ummahu, ummahu, ya ummi 
Wa shawqahu ila luqyaki ya ummi 
Ummuka, ummuka, ummuka ummuka 
Qawlu rasulika 
Fi qalbi, fi hulumi 
Anti ma’i ya ummi 
Mother... Mother... O my mother 
How I long to see O mother 
“Your mother, Your mother, Your mother” 
Is the saying of your Prophet 
In my heart, in my dreams 
You are always with me mother  [bad word] wa taraktini 
Ya nura ‘aynayya 
Ya unsa layli [bad word] wa taraktini 
Man siwaki yahdhununi 
Man siwaki [bad word] 
Man siwaki [bad word] 
‘Afwaki ummi 
Samihini... 
You went and left me 
O light of my eyes  [bad word] of my nights 
You went and left me 
Who, other than you, will embrace me? 
Who, other than you, will cover me? 
Who, other than you, will guard over me? 
Your pardon mother, forgive me
