Tears are running down my cheeks non stop right now :( It really touched my heart..Syahdu sey!!
I can't stop crying every time i hear this nasheed by Ahmad Bukhatir especially after i got the english translation. I love you mummy and Thank you for everything!

Watched a telemovie on Tv3 based on this nasheed called Demi Masa. I watched it halfway cause daddy wanted to watch some sports. I hope Tv3 will do a rerun of this telemovie!!! It's about a half blind mom with his ungrateful son & no matter how he treated her, she will always pray, love, care and treasure him. This is the second best telemovie i watched about "Mother's Love" after Janji Seorang Anak.

Ahmad Bukhatir - Lasawf a'uudu yaa Ummi



lasaufa a'udu ya ummi ## uqabilu ra'sakiz zaaki
abustuki kulla asswaqi ## wa arsyufu 'ithro yumnaaki
umarrigu fii tsaraa qadamaaiki ## khaddi hiina alqaaki
urawwit turba min dam'i ## suruuran fi muhayyaaki

fakam asharti min lailin ### liarquda mil'a ajfaani
wakam admadti min jaufin ## litarwiini bitahnaani
wayauma maridru la ansa ## dumuu'an minki kal mathari
wa ainan minki saahirotan ## takhafu alayya min khathari

wayauma wada'ina fajran ### wa maa aqsaahu min fajri
yuhaarul qaulu fi wasfil ladzi ## laaqaiti min hijri
wa qulti maqalatal laziltu ## mudzakkiron bihad dahri
muhaalun antara shadron ## ahanna alaika min shadri

bibirriki ya munaa umrii ## ilaahul kauni aushani
ridho'uki sirru taufiiqi ## wa hubbuki wamdu iimanii
wasidqu du'aikin farajat ## bihi kurabi wa ahzaani
widaaduki laa yusyathiruni ## bihi ahadun minal basyari

faanti nabdlu fi qalbii ## wa antil nuurun fii bashari
wa antil lahnu fii syafatii ## biwajhiki yanzali kadri
ilaaiki 'audu ya ummii ## ghadzan artaahu min safarii
wayabda'u 'ahdiyatsani ## wayazhul guznu bizzahrii


English Translation:

Chorus
I will return oh mother
And kiss your chaste head
And supress (blame?) my desires
And taste the scent of your blessings
Besmirch in the richness of your feet
my cheek when I meet you
Water the soil with my tears
Happy that you are alive

How many nights did you stay up late
So that I could sleep to my content?
And how many times did you thirst
So you could quench my thirst with your tenderness?
And one day I was ill, I do not forget
The tears from you that were like the rain
And your eyes which stayed awake
fearing that I may be in danger
And the day we parted at dawn
and Oh what a harsh dawn that was
Words cannot explain what
I felt when I abandoned you
And you told me things which I still
remember throughout my life
"You will never find a heart
more tender towards you than mine"
"You will never find a heart
more tender towards you than mine"

CHORUS

obedience to you, oh want of my life..
[is what] the God of existence has instructed me to do.
Your content is the secret of my success
And my love of you is the secret of my beleif
And the sincerety of your prayer [for me]..
has resolved my misfortunes and my sadness
My love towards you..
no human being loves anything like it
You are the beating of my heart
And you are what lights my vision
And you are the tune on my lips
My problems cease when I see your face
To you I do return oh mother
Tomorrow I rest from my journey
And a second age will begin for me
and the branches will blossom with flowers
