I've Seen (I wish You Were Here) Lyrics - Outlandish Feat. Sami Yusuf

I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so, so desperately

But lately I feel like you feel

And I see what you see

How I'm missing you

What happend to the Ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so, so desperately

But lately I feel like you feel

And I see what you see

How I'm missing you

What happend to the Ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

You used to inspire others with your way of thinking and speech

People came from afar just to hear us teach

What happend to the Ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

Mosques are empty

Refrigerators are stocked

We lost our Deen

We feel secure because our mansions are locked

In my teen years Salah really wasn't that tight

Now i gotta pray each one of them twice

What happend to the Ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

Brother we prefer light skinned women

While righteously maintain our deen against raicism

What happend to the Ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

Can you

I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so, so desperately

But lately I feel like you feel

And I see what you see

How I'm missing you

What happend to the Ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

Kids in Africa starving can't afford to cry

I'll pay the bank interest on a car I can't afford to buy

What happend to the Ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

We used to smile at each other

With faces full of light

Now we frown on each other

We bicker and we fight

Pops in the mosque praying

Kids in the streets hating

Kids on the corner selling

Pops in the mosque preaching

What happend to the Ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

The Quran has left our hearts

Stranded hanging on our walls

6,232 verses so strong

9 out of 10 of us can't even read or write

1924 feels distand like way before Christ

I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so, so desperately

But lately I feel like you feel

And I see what you see

How I'm missing you

(SPANISH)

Que le paso a la masa como puede ser

La grandesa conosida no la puedo ber

He bisto como mi figura cahe en tentation

Al pesar que la vida ha esido buena con luce e ilusion

He bebido, perdon por mis pecados 

Tengo la cruce sobre mi cama

e il diablo a mi lado

[What happened to the Ummah how can that be?]

[The greatness known once I can't see it no more]

[I have seen my eyes falling in temptation]

[Although life has given me light and ilussions]

[I have drinked, forgiveness for my sins]

[I have the cross on the wall over my bed

and the devil by my side]

Que le paso a la masa como puede ser

La bellesa conosida no la puedo ber

He sentido incompetentia buscando la verdad

Todos disen conoserla solo beo la maldad

Que le paso a la masa como puede ser

La puressa conosida no la puedo ber

[What happened to the Ummah how can that be?]

[The beauty known I can't see it no more]

[I have felt the incompetence in my way to truth]

[Everybody pretends to know it, but all I see is evil]

[What happened to the Ummah how can that be?]

[The purity known I can't see it no more]

If I was to fall on my knees

And ask you to forgive everything and anyone out of love for the one, oh oh oh

I've seen

And if you were to fall on your knees

And ask me the same

But I don't even think about it

Lets just break out of the darkness of ignorance

I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so, so desperately

But lately I feel like you feel

And I see what you see

How I'm missing you

I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so, so desperately

But lately I feel like you feel

And I see what you see

How I'm missing you
