Anthem for the Prophet ﷺ
Wimbo kwa ajili ya Mtume ﷺ
Sw
Ṣalli rabbī ʿala n-nabiyyi, shafīʿinā Aḥmad
Ṣalli rabbī ʿala n-nabiyyi, shafīʿinā Aḥmad
Msalie Mola wangu Nabii mwombezi wetu Ahmad
Msalie Mola wangu Nabii kiongozi wetu Muhammad
The people that in darkness dwelt,
Watu wale waliokaa katika giza,
A glorious light have seen
Nuru ya utukufu wameiona
God's prophet now to them hath come,
Nabii wa Mungu sasa kwao amekuja,
Muhammad, Al-Amin
Muhammad, yule Al-Amin
We hail thee, Allah's Prophet true,
Tunakusalimu, Nabii mkweli wa Allah,
Of prophecy the seal
Muhuri wa utume na unabii
We read with reverence the Book,
Tunakisoma Kitabu kwa kicho kikuu,
Thou wast sent to reveal
Ambacho ulitumwa kukibainisha
For thou the burden did'st remove,
Kwani wewe uliondoa ule mzigo mzito,
Idolatry's fell rod
Fimbo dhalimu ya ibada ya sanamu
And in thy day the idols fell,
Na katika zama zako sanamu zilianguka,
Before the Sword of God
Mbele ya Upanga wa Mwenyezi Mungu
To bless Arabia and the world,
Kubariki Arabuni na ulimwengu mzima,
Most surely thou wast raised
Hakika kabisa wewe uliteuliwa
We'll sing thy praises evermore,
Tutaziimba sifa zako milele,
Our Mustafa, the praised
Mustafa wetu, uliyesifiwa
We watch with gentle, fostering care,
Tunatunza kwa upole na uangalifu mkuu,
The seed that thou hast sown
Mbegu ile ambayo wewe uliipanda
And trust to hear the world declare,
Na twataraji kuisikia dunia ikitangaza,
God's prophet as its own
Nabii wa Mungu kuwa ni wake mwenyewe
