Ellahi Lyrics

Arabic translation:
Oh God You are my only Lord, You know everything
I came to You humbled, seeking Your forgiveness
You are al Kareem and al Jawad and al Samad and al Azeez , all creatures came to You
Oh lord I beg You don’t forsake me, no one care about me but You

Verse 1
The morning light shines through the dark
O lord, please bring peace to this broken heart
And I stand before You alone
A lost soul trying to find my way home
Lord, will You not find me, when I yearn for Your love
Lord, will You not help, when I cry out enough

Chorus 1
Allahumma Antas Salaam
Wa minkus Salaam
Ta baarakta Yathil Jallaali wal ikraam

Chorus 2
Everyday is a struggle, Everyday is a struggle
Help me get up and walk, Lord
Everyday is a struggle, Everyday is a struggle
Allah, help me to walk

Verse 2
I try to break through this hold on my past
Sow the seeds of hope and faith in only Allah
And I am broken with no where to go
The only road is to the One, whose mercy forever flows
