Farewell to the World

One shining day, was if time froze Thousands await, as the Prophet he rose Did the mountains tremble, from the weight of these words? Cause till now we remember, his farewell to the world. When he said Oh people, please lend an ear, Cause I Don't know if I'll be with you after this year Listen closely to these words I will say And convey them to those who could be not here today – That's you and I As he spoke the people listened in awe He began by thanking and praising God, then he said Oh people, the life of each one Is as sacred and as holy as this land in this month Do not hurt others and no harm comes to you Cause one day you'll return to your Lord for what is due Oh people, be fair and be just With the property of all those who give you their trust And leave all usury, this money from loans Never harm people with money, just keep what you own Cause In all things major, Satan knows that he fails But beware of the devil in the little details Oh people, please lend an ear, Cause I Don't know if I'll be with you after this year Listen closely to these words I will say And convey them to those who could be not here today – That's you and I As for women, they have rights over you To provide for their needs and let your kindness ensue They are your partners, so watch what you do They should faithful and always be true. Oh people, worship your Lord Pray five times a day, and fast Ramadan And give in charity, which you can afford And the pilgrimage to Mecca, if indeed you can All of Mankind is from Adam and Eve None of you are better – except in good deeds No others over Arabs, no Arabs over others, No white vs. black – we're all sisters and brothers Oh people, please lend an ear, Cause I Don't know if I'll be with you after this year Listen closely to these words I will say And convey them to those who could be not here today – That's you and I Oh people, one day you'll meet your Lord, So respect each other's property, what's yours is yours And remember there will be a day you'll stand with your deeds So don't stray from the path of God after I leave. Oh people, no new prophet will come No new faith will be born, after this one And I leave you two things, you never will stray The Holy Quran and the example I laid It's the Holy Quran and this guidance I gave So pass these words to those who are not here today And may the last ones who hear, grasp it better this way Oh Lord bear witness, I have conveyed!! Oh people, please lend an ear, Cause I Don't know if I'll be with you after this year Listen closely to these words I will say And convey them to those who could be not here today – That's you and I
