about

A song about the inner illumination of the spirit. Inspired by the hymn "This Little Light Of Mine", but with a different perspective.

lyrics

I am carrying a secret, a hidden flame
Haza sir, sharara khafiya
I am carrying a secret, a hidden flame
Haza sir, sharara khafiya
I am carrying a secret, a hidden flame, and it glows so bright, and it knows my name
Oh hidden flame, oh hidden fire, Divine
Sharara khafiya, sho'ala khfiya, Allah

I am carrying a flame, and it glows so bright
Haza sir, sharara khafiya
I am carrying a flame, and it glows so bright
Haza sir, sharara khafiya
I am carrying a flame, and it glows so bright, from the early day to the darkest night
Oh hidden flame, oh hidden fire, Divine
Sharara khafiya, sho'ala khfiya, Allah

I am carrying a flame, and it burns so pure
Haza sir, sharara khafiya
I am carrying a flame, and it burns so pure
Haza sir, sharara khafiya
I am carrying a flame, and it burns so pure, and it lights the way for what I endure
Oh hidden flame, oh hidden fire, Divine
Sharara khafiya, sho'ala khyfiya, Allah

I am carrying a flame, and it burns so strong
Haza sir, sharara khafiya
I am carrying a flame, and it burns so strong
Haza sir, sharara khafiya
I am carrying a flame, and it burns so strong, and it guides my course between right and wrong
Oh hidden flame, oh hidden fire, Divine
Sharara khafiya, sho'ala khyfiya, Allah
