*The word “Amaan” is Arabic for “Divine Protection”. In the Arabic language, the farewell greeting “Fee-‘Amaan-i-LLah” means “(Go, safely,) Under the Protection of God”.

The famous Mu-Najaat prayer by the Imam Ali Ibn-e-Abi Talib (alayhi-s-salaam), Son-in-Law of the Holy Prophet (Peace be Upon Him and upon His entire global family of followers) begins with the Appeal for Divine Protection :
“Allahumma, innee as-‘alu-Ka ‘l-‘Amaan”
(Oh God, truly I beg Thee for Thy Protection).

The Arabic word “Amanáh” (in Turkish : “Amaneh”) refers to a style of song resembling a prayer for Divine Assistance and Protection.

Heaven help us all, at this critical moment in history, as we enter a terrible new age of jahiliyya (ignorance) and “perma-crisis” in the dunya.
Afu’an-na, fa-ghfir la-na, wa ‘ar-ham-na, Anta Mawlana !

In the Third Line of the song, Dalaras uses the Greek word υπακοή, literally “obedience”, to mean “submission”. The Arabic word “Islam” means “Submission to the Highest Power in the Universe”. Try not to forget the significance of this word.
Only if we abide in such a state of Submission can we truly experience Divine Love. The Arabic word for Divine Love (in its active verbal form) is أَحَبَّ (ʾaḥabba) , while the Hebrew word for “love” is אַהֲבָה (ahavá).
In the Fourth Line of the song Dalaras uses the Greek word “aghápi” for “Divine Love”, which is, of course, the linguistic cognate of ‘ahabba and ahavá.
These three words : ‘ahabba, ahavá, and aghápi, are IDENTICAL IN MEANING.

On our spiritual journey which begins with Submission (Islam) and progresses through Divine Love (‘ahabba), we finally reach the state of Peace (Salaam) which passes all understanding. In a world gone mad, we have reached the Dar-us-Salaam, the Haven of Peace.

WORDS convey and carry MEANING (SIGNIFICANCE).
WORDS also convey and carry SOUND.
The most important mantric SOUND expressed by Dalaras in this song is the long, long-drawn-out –AAAAAAA- (near the start of the song). The significance of the vowel -AAA- is there in the word ‘Amaan (Divine Protection). It’s there in the word Salaam (Peace). It’s there in the word ‘Ahabba (Divine Love) and, above all, it’s there in the word Al-Láh (with the emphasis on the SECOND VOWEL -á-), The Highest Power in the Universe.
