In the streets of Madinah

I found all that I had lost
In the streets of Madinah ...

I found my childhood
As I walked once again
To the holy mosque
In the streets of Madinah

I found my happiness
In the smiles of the vendors
Selling their wares
In the streets of Madinah

I found beloved faces
In all the memories
Scattered along the way
In the streets of Madinah

I found a reason to live
In the sound of the azaan
That fills every nook
In the streets of Madinah

I found all the goodness
And beauty in this world
It will always be safe
In the streets of Madinah

I found all that I had lost
And the only thing I had really lost
I found the footsteps of my Prophet
In the streets of Madinah
