Haddad Alwi - 'The Way Of Love'

The Prophet's Path, the Way of Love
Only by this Love you'll rise above
Like a dove that's been set free
Love with longing is the key
This love with longing is the key

Honey, nectar, sweetness and cream
Orchids blooming by a mountain stream
Starlit skies and waves on the sand
Next to love they can't stand
Next to this love they cannot stand

Yaa Rabii yaa sarii'ar ridha irham man ro-su maalihir-rajaa
Wa thina maa qad sa-alnaa bi liqaa-i khairil anaami,
Yaa khairal a'anaami

The Prophet's Path, the Way of Love
Only by this Love you'll rise above
Like a dove that's been set free
Love with longing is the key
This love with longing is the key

Yaa man-ismuhu dawa wa dzikruhu syifaa-un lana
Rabbii faj'al mujtama'na ghayatuhu husnul khitami
Bihusnul khitami

How can I find a way to express
Something that cannot be thought or guessed
Something more than just words
This love is neither seen nor heard
This love is neither seen nor heard

Love is the rope given by Allah
It will save you from over flaw
Grasp it then He will draw you near
