the jorny

All across Ocean and land, Incumbent on all man,

Is the pilgrimage to Mecca, Fifth pillar of Islam,

In the footsteps of Muhammed, The last prophet of Allah.

Bow Down, Bow down and praise Allah, First sight, First sight of the Ka'bah.

Break down, Break down, Break down and praise Allah.

The path, This journey from afar, To the city of Makkah,

To strengthen what we believe in, The voyage we undertake,

Hear the echo in the wind, Labaik, Allah Humma Labbaik.

Bow Down, Bow down and praise Allah, First sight, First sight of the Ka'bah.

Break down, Break down, Break down and praise Allah.

Ismaeel, Son of Ibraheem, Lay on the burning sand,

With his mother running frantically, Between Safa and Marwa,

From the sky came Angel Jibraeel, Brought a blessing from Allah.

Bow Down, Bow down and praise Allah, First sight, First sight of the Ka'bah.

Break down, Break down, Break down and praise Allah.

It isn't always easy, There is so much we don't know,

So many people in this world, Just don't know which way to go,

But if our faith prevails, We'll always do our very best,

To have the strongest conviction, And survive the greatest test.

Oh, here we are, Leaving Mina, Conviction in our hearts,

Crying out to the heavens, On the plains of Arafah,

Standing proud beside my brother, Silent at Muzdalifah.

Labaik Allahumma Labbaik.

Bow Down, Bow down and praise Allah, First sight, First sight of the Ka'bah.

Bow Down, Bow down and praise Allah.

Makkah, Makkah Al-Mukarramah.

Break down, Break down, Break down and praise Allah.
