[Verse 1] In the silence of the mountain, under skies without a sound, A revelation found a heart the world had left underground. He came down with trembling hands, with a truth too strong to hide, While the night stood at the doorway, something sacred came alive. [Pre-Chorus] They called him liar, called him mad, They fought the mercy that he had. But through the fire, through the pain, He rose and spoke the truth again. [Chorus] The light goes on, the light goes on, When every road is dead and gone. Through the tears, through the fear, The mercy of Allah drew near. We rise, we rise, though the night is long— With faith in our hearts, the light goes on. [Verse 2] They threw their stones in Makkah’s streets, they answered peace with hate, The faithful bore the hunger, exile, sorrow at the gate. He lost the ones who held him close, yet never cursed the sky, He carried every broken heart and taught the weak to rise. [Pre-Chorus] At Ta’if’s dust, beneath the blame, He chose forgiveness over flame. With every wound the world could see, He answered cruelty with dignity. [Chorus] The light goes on, the light goes on, When every road is dead and gone. Through the tears, through the fear, The mercy of Allah drew near. We rise, we rise, though the night is long— With faith in our hearts, the light goes on. [Bridge – Arabic-inspired] Ya Rasulallah, ya Mustafa, Rahmatun lil-‘alamin. La ilaha illallah, Guide us through the storm within. From Makkah’s tears to Madinah’s dawn, A wounded world kept moving on. No sword could silence what was true, No darkness hide the light in you. [Final Chorus] The light goes on, the light goes on, Even when the strongest fall. Through the scars, through the years, Your message still is ringing here. We rise, we rise, and we carry on— With faith in our hearts, the light goes on. [Outro] Peace be upon you, chosen guide, Your struggle still walks by our side.
