dawud wharnsby ali - why are the drums so silent? lyrics

all the sounds that surround us
all the noises that dumbfound us
the clatter and the clammer of the clutter in our lives
cars and streets make silent shatter
idle minds fill up with idle chatter
if we fill our void, that’s all matters

why are the drums so silent?
why can’t we hear the rhythm?
what’s wrong with you and i?
why are the drums so silent?
why can’t we hear the rhythm
from the heels of believers
marching to the garden as they strive
we digitised the revеlation
does our rehearsеd recitation
go any deeper than our throats?
our call to prayer seems to raise up to the sky
conferences and lectures, seminars for you and i
the words that blow away with the nasheed that makes us cry, yet

and if we can just be brave enough
to be each others meer
we may finally recognise
the face of conscience that we fear
and if we can take the time to mute the noise
we’ve built around ourselves
the rhythm of a heartbeat
and the purpose may be clear

if we beat the drum (a whisper of peace)
beat the drum (moving through the land)
beat the drum
if we beat the drums of hope and faith
we will all fall into rhythm
i have faith in you and i
if we beat the drums of hope and faith
then we will feel the rhythm
from our footsteps and our striving
marching to the garden as we try

if we beat the drums of hope and faith
we will all fall into rhythm
i have faith in you and i
if we beat the drums of hope and faith
then we will feel the rhythm
from our footsteps and our striving
marching to the garden as we die
