Hussein’s a candle of light

By: Sayed Ali Al-Mousawi Al-Khalkhali

Hussein Hussein Ya Hussein
Hussein Hussein Ya Hussein

***

Hussein’s a candle of light,
Who glows both in day and night,
Guiding us all to the right,
To Kerbala we want to fly.

***

Hussein is the saviour,
He is sinless he’s the pure,
He will guide me he’s the cure,
I’ll knock always at your door.

***

You are Safinat un Najat,
You are Ihdin as Sirat,
You are so close to my heart,
From it you will never depart.

***

I will hold onto your rope,
For you are my only hope,
Without you I’ll never cope,
Guide me to the narrow road.

***

Let us board Hussein’s ship,
Let us head for the best trip,
Guaranteed, you’ll never slip,
Those left behind, will never win.

***

I’m ready to go through much pain,
Let them all call me insane,
As long as I’m with Hussein,
I’m following Allah’s Lane.

***

On the eve of Ashura,
The whole world is in Azaa’,
For a man who is so great,
For our master the Hussein.
