Oh Mountains of Makkah what can you say
Of the day that Abraham passed your way
And he was instructed by God to build
A house of peace where people will pray
And they will come on every lean camel and out of every ravine
They will come for the purpose of praising Allah, glorifying Allah
O mountains of Makkah what can you tell
of the day when stones from the sky fell
Destroying an army determined to break
The house of Allah that Abraham built
O mountains of Makkah how was the dawn
On the day that my Prophet Muhammad (saw) was born
How did it feel knowing he was to be
the last and most beloved of all
Rasul of Allah, Nabi of Allah
O mountains of Makkah you were there
When the Prophet Muhammad (saw) climbed down in despair
Engraved in his heart were the words of his Lord
To all of mankind this was his call
La illaha ilAllah Muhammad-u-Rasulallah
O people praise only Allah, Glorify Allah
O mountains of Makkah how did you mourn
On the day that the beloved returned to ourLord
And up til the last breath escaped from his lips
He prayed that his Ummah would find success
O mountains of Makkah how will it feel
When the earth shall quake and tremble with fear
And we shall be gathered together to stand
In the court of Allah with our deeds at hand
O how we pray that on that day
We'll be with those to whom Allah will say
Peace be with you, I am pleased with you
O mountains of Makkah Bear witness that I
To the oneness of Allah do I testify
For all that He's given me, how can I deny
My purpose in life should be only to cry:
La illaha ilallah Muhammad-u-Rasulallah
There is no God but Allah,
Muhammad (saw) is His messenger.
