Confession

Now I see The truth in me A never-ending greed Blinded by my own deeds **** So true what to say We know but we play But today I will say **** If you turn me away To who else can I pray **** Your signs awake me From my sleep Your tests of pain That go so deep **** But without your light I couldn’t realize How far I had strayed **** My blackened heart With a thousand marks So blind to your ways **** If you turn me away To who else can I pray Chorus **** Ya Mawlana Ya KArim Ya GHafiradh-dhambi Ya Rahim Oh my Lord, Oh Generous one! Oh forgiver of sin, Oh Most Merciful One! Dallalat-nid-durubu Wal-ana-a’ud Roads of life have lead me astray And now I come back Askarat-nidh-dhunubu Wal-ana atub Sins have made me blind And now I turn to you in regret Ji’tuka ta’iba La taruddani Kha’iba I have come to you seeking forgiveness Don’t send me away saddened
