Lyrics

We once had a teacher, the teacher of teachers.
He changed the world for the better and made us better creatures.
Oh Allah, we've shamed ourselves, we've strayed from Muallim.
Surely we've wronged ourselves, what will we say in front of him?
Oh Muallim.
He was Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
Muhammad, mercy upon mankind, teacher of all mankind.
Ya Habibi, ya Muhammad, ya Shafi'i, ya Muhammad.
Kharu khalqillahi Muhammad.
Ya Mustafa, Imam al-Mursalina, Ya Mustafa, ya Shafi'i al-Alamina.
He prayed while others slept, while others ate he'd fast.
While they would laugh he went until he breathed his last.
His only wish was for us to be among the ones who prospered.
Ya Muallim, peace be upon you, truly you are our teacher.
Oh Muallim.
He was Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
Muhammad, mercy upon mankind.
He was Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
Muhammad, mercy upon mankind, teacher of all mankind.
Ya Mustafa, Imam al-Mursalina, Ya Mustafa, ya Shafi'i al-Alamina.
Ya Mustafa, Imam al-Mursalina, Ya Mustafa, ya Shafi'i al-Alamina.
