Smith & Dragoman Badi lyrics

A troubled youth who would turn from his father's word
He must find his own way
Unaware of the mark he would leave on this world
His journey unknown
With a word Nabíl kindled the fire of love in his heart
And he set off to find the love of the world

Chorus 1
O Badí‘! You were chosen to move the world
To carry the tablet of might
And fulfilling the trust you would hold
You offered your life

Holy was the mission entrusted to you
You enter His room
On that night He would show you the other side
The light and the beauty
Destiny a tablet of truth to challenge his rule
With trust and devotion, embracing your goal


Chorus 2
O Badí‘! You were chosen to move the world
To carry the tablet of might
And fulfilling the trust you would hold
You offered your life

Your sacrifice and the honour upon your soul
Embracing the call from above
And with courage you welcome your end and show us your love

The Messenger weeps alone in His cell
The pen that will immortalize your name
Beloved Badí‘, the heavens will cry for you
A whisper in our hearts you will remain

Chorus
