Mothers Love – Safe Adam

Safe Adam: Mothers Love Download | MP3 (Amazon)

Three words came to mind after listening to this track: Quick, chirpy  and country.

This track touches on an important subject of looking after your mother. The Hadith says:

“A man came to the Prophet and said, ‘O Messenger of God! Who among the people is the most worthy of my good companionship? The Prophet said: Your mother. The man said, ‘Then who?’ The Prophet said: Then your mother. The man further asked, ‘Then who?’ The Prophet said: Then your mother. The man asked again, ‘Then who?’ The Prophet said: Then your father” (Bukhari, Muslim)

There are many Nasheeds about loving your mother. Safe himself did a track related to mothers on his previous album ‘Heart’.

This one is different.

The increased tempo creates a mood of celebration, perhaps celebrating the blessing of mothers. The track is sang from the son’s perspective, letting his mother know that he will be there for her, and make her life easy. It teaches that we should thank and respect our mothers for their dedication and unconditional love.

I will analyse the lyrics for ‘Mothers Love’, calling out any links to Quran and Hadith.

Why not Buy the song on Amazon before reading on?

Safe Adam – Mother Love Lyrics

Tell me if it ain’t easy
I’m here if you need me
Let me heal all you’re aching bones
Don’t be so proud to ask me
I’ll always be your son

It’s time to lay your head down – 1
Let me carry on
Carry on
It’s time to lay your head down
Let me take it on
Take it on

Our faces change
but our hearts don’t stop
I know time’s not fair
But who’s watching the clock
Life’s no walk in the park – 2
Every step is with love

There’s no denying
A Mothers love
A Mothers love

The creases around your eyes
Could tell a thousand stories
But no-one can deny
The son that’s still to haunt you
But to lift your life of doing good
and put on others before you

It’s time to lay your head down
Let me carry on
Carry on
It’s time to lay your head down
Let me take it on
Take it on

Our faces change
but our hearts don’t stop
I know time’s not fair
But who’s watching the clock
Life’s no walk in the park
Every step is with love

There’s no denying
A Mothers love
A Mothers love

Heaven will always be beneath you – 3
Heaven will always be beneath you

 

“We have enjoined on man kindness to his parents; in pain did his mother bear him, and in pain did she give him birth” (Quran 46:15)

2 “And seek help through patience and prayer, and indeed, it is difficult except for the humbly submissive [to Allah ]” (Quran 2:45)

3 “The Prophet Muhammad said, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him: Your Heaven lies under the feet of your mother (Sunan Nasai, Ch.6, Hadith 3106 )

 

Final Thoughts

It’s refreshing to hear Nasheeds like this. I really like the country sound.

Safe Adam has taken a common lesson that you will hear in many nasheeds, but given it a new flavour.

While I feel he needs to be careful on the high notes, Safe has certainly produced a track that will be repeated over and over by many.

I encourage people to support Nasheed artists like Safe by buying the track rather than downloading free.
