Lyrics

1.5 million believers
All eager
All have Madina fever
All envy that Madina street cleaner
But we only come and leave as guests
We come messed and leave blessed
And then head home to far far west
Far away from where you rest

[Hook]
Ayuhal mushtaqu la tanami
Hadhihi anwaru dhi salami
ʿAn qaribin anta fi ʹl-ḥarami
ʿInda khairi ʹlʿurbi wa-ʹlʿajami

أيُّها المُشتاقُ لا تَنَمِ
هذه أنوار ذي سلم
عن قريب أنت في الحرم
عندَ خيرِ العربِ والعجمِ

[O you who is in love, do not sleep
For these are the lights of Dhi Salam
Soon you shall be in the sacred sanctuary
With he who is the best of the Arabs and non-Arabs]

[Verse 2]
Hop on a plane and I fly west
Heart full of pain stuck in my chest
Miles away I guess this is my test
But loving you was never my test

It's hard sometimes
I even fall sometimes
Always believed from time
You'll intercede come time, yeah

[Hook]
Ayuhal mushtaqu la tanami
Hadhihi anwaru dhi salami
ʿAn qaribin anta fi ʹl-ḥarami
ʿInda khairi ʹlʿurbi wa-ʹlʿajami

أيُّها المُشتاقُ لا تَنَمِ
هذه أنوار ذي سلم
عن قريب أنت في الحرم
عندَ خيرِ العربِ والعجمِ

[O you who is in love, do not sleep
For these are the lights of Dhi Salam
Soon you shall be in the sacred sanctuary
With he who is the best of the Arabs and non-Arabs]

[Verse 3]
I felt like it was my home
I fell in love with the green dome
I told everyone that I know
I'd give everything that I own
Just to make this place my home
