Ta’la al Badru ‘Alayna (Arabic: طلع البدر علينا) is a traditional Islamic song (Nasheed) that the Ansar sung to the Prophet Muhammad upon his arrival at Yathrib after completing the Hijra in 622 CE. The song is currently over 1400 years old, and one of the oldest in the Islamic culture.
طلع البدر علينا Tala’ul Badru ‘Alayna Oh the white moon rose over us
من ثنيات الوداع Min thaniyatil wada From the valley of Wada.
وجب الشكر علينا Wajabal shukru ‘alayna And we owe it to show gratefulness
ما دعى لله داع Ma da’ali lahi da Where the call is to Allah.
أيها المبعوث فينا Ayuhal mab’uthu fina Oh you who were raised among us
جئت بالأمر المطاع Ji’ta bil amri muta Coming with a word to be obeyed
جئت شرفت المدينة Ji’ta sharaftal madinah You have brought to this city nobleness
مرحبا يا خير داع Marhaban ya khayra da Welcome best caller to God’s way
