Labbaik Labbaik Labbaik Oh Imaam
We are here to serve you Oh Imaam
1.
Your birth came as a mercy, you're a saviour to mankind
Your father ten before him taught the message so enshrined
But you're the last Imaam to come, a goal you've been assigned
To save Allah's creation should we be so inclined
But are we ready now for your return oh my Imaam
We ask forgiveness through you oh Imaam
2.
Your father an Imaam, your mother a princess
You were born in Samarra, a city of holiness
You led your father’s prayers to show your faultlessness
Since then we've hardly seen you, we're lost in the wilderness
So how will we know that you've returned to us Imaam
Our hearts cannot ignore you oh Imaam
3.
You're concealed from us Imaam but our love for you is clear
Unshakable, immoveable, so solid and sincere
To the teachings of Quran and your family we adhere
We pray for your return Imaam each and every year
So when will you come and satisfy our hearts Imaam
We desperately await you oh Imaam
4.
Goodbye to corruption, farewell to treachery
Yours will be a government of trust and decency
Once again we'll see your Grandfather’s legacy
You'll keep your rulings just and show us Allah's mercy
But when will you come back to us please tell us oh Imaam
We need your guidance now oh Imaam
5.
As-alaaamun alayka Ya Saahibuzamaan
The only living guardian of the holy Quran
A symbol of Allah the most Raheem the Rahmaan
The guide for your Shia our teacher of Imaan
But now were in a world where sin is rampant oh Imaam
We're yearning for your teaching oh Imaam
We are here to serve you oh Imaam
