We once had a teacher

the teacher of teachers

he changed the world for the better

and made us better creatures

O Allah we've cshamed ourselves

we've strayed from Al- Mu'allim

surely we've wronged ourselves

what will we say in front of him

O mu'allim

*He was Muhammad salla Allahu 

'alayhi wa sallam

Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind

*repeat

teacher of all Mankind

Abal Qasim{one of the names of the Prophet]

Ya Habibi ya Muhammad 

ya Syafi'e ya Muhammad

Khayru khalqillahi Muhammad

**Ya Mustafa ya Imamal Mursalina

Ya Mustafa ya Shafi'al 'Alamina

**repeat (2x)

He prayed while others slept

while others ate he'd fast

while they would laugh he wept

until he breathed his last

his only wish was for us to be

among the ones who prosper

Ya Mu'allim peace be upon you

turly you are our teacher

O mu'allim

*repeat

Ya Habibi ya Muhammad 

ya Syafi'e ya Muhammad

YA Rasuli ya Muhammad

Ya Bashiri ya Muhammad

Ya Nadhiri ya Muhammad

'Ishqu Qalbi ya Muhammad

Nuru 'Ayni ya Muhammad

He taught us to be just and kind

and to feed the poor and hungry

help the wayfarer and the orphan child

and not to be cruel and miserly

his speech was soft and gentle

like a mother stroking her child

his mercy and compassion

were most radiant when he smiled

*repeat (2x)

O Mua'allim..
