We once had a Teacher
The Teacher of teachers,He changed the world for the betterAnd made us better creatures,Oh Allah we've shamed ourselvesWe've strayed from Al-Mu'allim,Surely we've wronged ourselvesWhat will we say in front him?Ooh Mu'allim
He was Muhammad salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam,Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,He was Muhammad salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam,Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,Teacher of all Mankind.Abal Qasim (one of the names of the Prophet)Ya Habibi ya Muhammad(My beloved O Muhammad)Ya Shafi'i ya Muhammad(My intercessor O Muhammad)Khayru khalqillahi Muhammad(The best of Allah's creation is Muhammad)
Ya Mustafa ya Imamal Mursalina(O Chosen One, O Imam of the Messengers)Ya Mustafa ya Shafi'al Alamina(O Chosen One, O intercessor of the worlds)Ya Mustafa ya Imamal MursalinaYa Mustafa ya Shafi'al AlaminaYa Mustafa ya Imamal MursalinaYa Mustafa ya Shafi'al Alamina
He prayed while others sleptWhile others ate he'd fast,While they would laugh he weptUntil he breathed his last,His only wish was for us to beAmong the ones who prosper,Ya Mu'allim peace be upon you,Truly you are our Teacher,Ooh Mu'allim.
He was Muhammad salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam,Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,He was Muhammad salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam,Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,Teacher of all Mankind

He taught us to be just and kindAnd to feed the poor and hungry,Help the wayfarer and the orphan childAnd to not be cruel and miserly,His speech was soft and gentle,Like a mother stroking her child,His mercy and compassion,Were most radiant when he smiled
He was Muhammad salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam,Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,He was Muhammad salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam,Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,Teacher of all Mankind
