Prophet Muhammad’s night journey to Jerusalem from Makkah (Mecca) is a core belief in the faith of Islam, peace and blessings be upon him. According to the tradition, the angel Gabriel woke the prophet one night while he was sleeping by the Kaaba in Makkah and had bought a creature called al-Buraq....
[Verse 1]
Once upon a lighting horse
Riding through the universe
Shedding light upon a thousand doors
Time stood still
On the olive hill
[Verse 2]
On his back the prophet sat
Open-eyed not looking back
'Til they reach the sacred land
Time stood still
On the olive hill
[Verse 3]
There upon a golden square
All the prophets joined in prayer
And the stars fell silent everywhere
Time stood still
On the olive hill
[Bridge]
Then the heavenly ascent
Past the place where no soul went
This one soul was welcomed in
Time stood still
On the olive hill
[Verse 4]
Then the tale began to spread
Some would say he's lost his head
But for those who trusted
Light would spill
Around the olive hill
