LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
From the mountain tops of Daghestan!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
To the pounding seas of the Caspian!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
In the tender grips of our fair ladies!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Or the flailing fists of our enemies!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
In the charm of peace or the cloud of war!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Whether thriving, rich or struggling poor!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
We will die like men with our faces high!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
When they face us, see their quivering eyes!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Much better to roam like a howling wolf!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Than bow and bark like pet, woof, woof!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
When the thunder came, we arose like fire!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
We have no fear, Allah is our desire!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
We are dust off the feet of our Pir Shamyl!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Hear his rousing voice shake the mountain air!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Oh Muslim men rise from your gloom!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
In morning sun and the afternoon!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
In the depths of night, while the weak ones snooze!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
From the inner core of your Mu’min heart!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Cry the kalima and fire up your heart!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Our bold fathers sigh from their graves!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
We have lost our light we have lost their way!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
So unite with them as they roar with love!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
Drown your heart and soul with His noorani flood!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
LA ILAHA ILLALAH!
