Lyrics

Open your eyes, my little one
Not long ago, I was also young
When you’ll wake up, and hold your own
Know with each wrinkle there's some lessons you’ll learn

[Pre-Chorus]
By the time you learn to love
You’ll have to learn to lose
Since one day I’ll be leaving you
But hold on tight, like you once did
And when you get a chance, say a prayer like this

[Chorus X2]
Rabbir Hamhuma
Kama Rabbayani Sagheera
Rabbir Hamhuma

رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا
كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرًا
رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا

[My Lord, have mercy on them (my parents)
Just as they cared for me when I was little
My Lord, have mеrcy on them]

[Verse 2]
The greatеst empires have turned to sand
And one day we’ll all be joining them
Pray you stay firm, hope you stay kind
Pray you always learn from the best of mankind

[Pre-Chorus]
By the time you learn to love
You’ll have to learn to lose
Soon one day I’ll be leaving you
But hold on tight, like you once did
And when you get a chance, say a prayer like this

[Chorus X2]
Rabbir Hamhuma
Kama Rabbayani Sagheera
Rabbir Hamhuma

رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا
كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرًا
رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا

[My Lord, have mercy on them (my parents)
Just as they cared for me when I was little
My Lord, have mercy on them]

[Bridge]
Worship your Lord, and He is One
Honor your parents, you’ll be honored in return
Your Lord sees all, so be amongst the just
Offer all your prayers from dawn to dusk

This life is a test, so strive to be your best
Be patient in this life, it’s the key to the next
Keep pride out your heart, live life like a guest
Good character is what our prophet came to perfect

[Pre-Chorus]
By the time you learn to love
You’ll have to learn to lose
Soon one day we’ll be waiting for you
But hold on tight, like you once did
Hope your little ones say a prayer like this

[Chorus X2]
Rabbir Hamhuma
Kama Rabbayani Sagheera
Rabbir Hamhuma

رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا
كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرًا
رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا

[My Lord, have mercy on them (my parents)
Just as they cared for me when I was little
My Lord, have mercy on them]
