Haramain’s Batu Hitam Malay Lyrics English Translation
Hafiz Hamidun tells the story of the ‘Al-Hajarul Aswad,’ a stone that turned from white to black due to the sins of those who kissed it. He describes how this sacred stone, guarded by angels, became a symbol of repentance and purity. One key line translates to, ‘With sincere repentance, the heart starts to shine once more.’
Gelaran takzim Al-Amin terciptaThe honorable title of ‘Al-Amin’ was bestowed,
Kala Rasulullah melerai sengketawhen the Messenger of Allah settled the dispute.
Siapa yang lebih layak tuk meletakIt was about who was most worthy to place
Batu hitam ke penjuru Kaabahthe black stone at the corner of the Kaaba.
Batu hitam mendapat namaThe black stone earned its name
Bila ramai pendosa menciumnyabecause so many sinners have kissed it.
Batu sakral berasal dari syurgaIt’s a sacred stone from paradise,
Dari putih jadi hitam warnanyaand its color turned from white to black.
Al-Hajarul Aswad hanya batu biasaThe ‘Al-Hajarul Aswad’ is just an ordinary stone,
Tetapi tanpanya Kaabah tidak sempurnabut without it, the Kaaba isn’t complete.
Sehingga Rasulullah telah mengucupnyaIt was only after the Messenger of Allah kissed it
Maka jadilah ia sunnah Bagindathat it became a tradition of his.
Sunnah BagindaIt’s his tradition.
Tika banjir besar di zaman Nabi NuhDuring the great flood in the time of Prophet Noah,
Sebahagian Kaabah telah runtuha portion of the Kaaba collapsed.
Hajarul Aswad dijaga malaikatThe ‘Hajarul Aswad’ was guarded by angels
Diletakkan di tempat asalnya, whoa, whoaand placed back in its original home.
Batu hitam mendapat namaThe black stone earned its name
Bila ramai pendosa menciumnyabecause so many sinners have kissed it.

Jaga hati dan akhlak ketika menciumnyaGuard your heart and your conduct when you kiss it,
Agar tidak sampai menghina rumah Allahso you don’t end up disrespecting Allah’s house.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoaWhoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Seluas padang pasir nun megahnya teguh KaabahAcross the vast desert, the Kaaba stands firm and grand.
Disaksi Hajarul Aswad tertulis sejarah gagahWitnessed by the ‘Hajarul Aswad’, a mighty history’s been written.
Batu bukan alang-alang mercu yang tersuciIt’s no ordinary stone, but the most sacred landmark.
Ada simpan rahsia-rahsia di balik janjiIt holds secrets behind every promise.
Asal putih jadi hitam ada sebab dijadiIt turned from white to black for a reason.
Dosa-dosa dicuci hati berubah makin disuciSins are washed away, and the heart becomes purer.
Rasulullah yang mulia menciumnya penuh hikmahThe noble Messenger of Allah kissed it with wisdom.
Sunnah Baginda pegangan jadikan satu amanahHold onto his tradition as a sacred trust.
Sujud di depan KaabahProstrate yourself before the Kaaba.

Begitu hati manusiaThat’s how the human heart is.
Hitam kelam diselaput dosaIt can be pitch black, shrouded in sin.
Dengan taubatan nasuhaBut with sincere repentance
Bersungguh dan tidak lagi mengulanginyaand a promise to never repeat those mistakes,
Itulah penyuciannyathat’s how it’s purified.
Kembali bercahayaIt starts to shine once more.
