[Verse 1]
[D]All[Em] acro[G]ss[A][G][D]
ocean and [Em]land
Incumbent [A]on all men
Is the [G]pilgrimage to Mec[D]ca
Fifth pillar [A]of Islam
In the [G]footsteps of Muhammad,
[D]the last Prophet [A]of Allah
[Em]Bow down, bow down and p[D]raise Allah
[Em]First sight, first sight of [D]the Ka 'bah
Break [G]down, break down [Em]and p[D]raise Allah
The path, this journey [Em]from afar
[G]To the [Em]city [A]of Makkah
To strengthen [G]what we [D]believe in
The voyage we under[A]take
Hear the [G]echo in [D]the wind
Labbaik, Allahumma [A]labbaik
[Em]Bow down,
bow down and praise [D]Allah
[Em]First sight, first sight of [D]Bikamah
[G]Break down,
[Em]break down and [D]praise Allah
Ismail, son of [G]Ibrahim
Lay [A]on the burning sand
With his [Em]mother running [D]frantically
Between Safar and Mar[A]wa
From the sky [Em]came [G]angel [D]Jibril
Brought a blessing from Allah
[A]Bow[Em] down,
bow down and praise [A]our [D]Lord
[Em]First sight, first sight of [D]each other
[A]Break [G]down, [Em]break down and prism[D]
It isn't [A]always easy
[G]There is so much [D]we don't know
So many [A]people in this world
[G]Just don't kno[D]w which way to go
But if [G]our faith prevails
[D]We'll always do [G]our very best
[A]To have the str[D]ongest conviction
And [G]survive the greatest [A]test
[Em]Oh, [A]here w[D]e are
Leaving me [G]now
Conviction [A]in our hearts
Crying [G]out to the heav[D]ens
On the plains of Ara[A]fat
Standing [G]proud beside my [D]brother
Silent death must die if [A]I
La Baye, [Em]Oumma, La [D]Baye[Em][D]
[Em]Bow down,
bow down in [D]praise of Allah
[Em]First sight,
first sight [D]of the Ka 'bah
[Em]Bow down,
bow down and [D]praise Allah
[Em]Makkah, Makkah mukab[D]balah
Break down, break down and [D]praise Allah
You
