Twelfth Holy Flower

O Twelfth Holy Flower
(a nasheed for Imam Mahdi ajtfs)

Allahuma Ajjil Li-waliyyik al-Faraj
(O Allah, Hasten the Return of Your Wali)

To follow you Mawla, to be in your shelter
To be in the Kaabah the moment you enter
To protect you from every motive sinister
To pray in the masjid with you front n center x 2
Ya Saahib az-Zamaan x 3

To hear you repeating the words of the caller
Mohammad appointing Ali as our mawla
The Prophet he said unto them “I am awla”
“For whom I am mawla, Ali is his mawla” x 2
Ya Saahib az-Zamaan x 3

We are not enamored by wealth or by power
We care not for owners of sky-scraping towers
We shall never forget the trumpet, the hour
To you we are loyal O Twelfth Holy Flower x 2
Ya Saahib az-Zamaan x 3

‘Tis not in the mansions, the cruises, the leisure
Our love for you Mawla is our greatest treasure
To be on your path is to gain Allah’s pleasure
This Blessing of Allah on us has no measure x 2
Ya Saahib az-Zamaan x 3

O lion of Haider O grandson of Saadiq
O preacher of justice, O teacher of logic
O servant of Allah, O hujjah of Khaliq
O leader of Isa, O Quran-e-Naatiq x 2
Ya Saahib az-Zamaan x 3

The species are dying, the earth’s getting hotter
You are unto us as to desert is water
Your Shi’ah are facing a new wave of slaughter
(alternative rendition: Your ghaibah is heavy upon your supporters)
Awaiting you is every son every daughter x 2
