I sometimes lie awake at night

And wonder at the stars so bright

I dream about my future too

And the things that I will do

Soon the world will count on me

I'm the future, they agree

People depend on me somehow

Though small and timid, I am now

So you and I my dearest friend

Must stand together till the end

For we are one by Allah's grace

No matter what our creed or race

We must prepare ourselves today

While we journey on life's way

So education we must crave

From the cradle to the grave

So those entrusted with our care

Train us please and do your share

We'll make you proud of us somehow

So waste no time and teach us now

We need your love and tender care

Your sincere and ardent prayer

So much there is to learn and see

For true believers we must be

O Allah we love you so

Give us health and make us grow

Be with us each passing day

While we journey on life's way
