Lyrics:

He stepped inside his home, was overwhelmed with fear
An angel came with words from God, things were still unclear
Saying read - read, but He could not read,
Amazing words that He heard
A trembling deep inside His heart, confused by what had occurred
There was only one who could comfort Him
To help Him see the light
To ease His fears, to reassure
Was Khadijah, His wife...

When he said Zamilooni
Zamilooni
He said Dathirooni
Dathirooni
A mighty task has come before me
I need you here with me
By my side
By my side
By my side

She was a woman of nobility, successful in all Her trade
Many wealthy men had asked for Her, She turned them all away
But when She saw Muhammad, a shining moon
May peace be on His soul
He was a light for Her - so right for Her
Her life will now be whole
But she had never seen him so distressed, as he was there on that day
But she would comfort him, and hold him tight, and chase his doubts away

When he said Zamilooni
Zamilooni
He said Dathirooni
Dathirooni
A mighty task has come before me
I need you here with me
By my side
By my side
By my side

She sacrificed all her wealth and everything she had
And he honored her and gave her faith,
when the times were bad, the times were bad...
Cause she was there for him when times were rough,
And His enemies were cruel
She was the first believer, so keen and eager
to comfort Ar-Rasool

When he said Zamilooni
Zamilooni
He said Dathirooni
Dathirooni
A mighty task has come before me
I need you here with me
By my side
By my side
By my side
