Oh the people are coming and going;
..............................
There's a buzz in the world tonight;
people are so excited
Daddy's coming home soon;
hoping to see the moon
Hoping to catch a sight
everyone's so happy

Moon, Moon, come out soon
We're out to see the Ramadan Moon
Clouds shift fog lift!
City put out your lights
We want to see the
Ramadan Moon tonight!

Now Ramadan has started;
and the Moon has just been sighted
Tomorrow we all fast
every Muslim must
Now 'Esha time is here
and it's time to leave for prayer
The Imam is in the Mosque;
the Qur'an is in his heart

Moon, Moon, come out soon
We're out to see the Ramadan Moon
Clouds shift fog lift!
City put out your lights
We want to see the
Ramadan Moon tonight

From the early break of dawn,
we'Il go the whole day long
Shops are full of dates
but still we have to wait
Till the sun goes down,
and it's time to break our
The food is on the plate
ooh! It tastes so good!

Moon, Moon, come out soon
We're out to see the Ramadan Moon
Clouds shift; fog lift!
City put out your lights
We want to see the
Ramadan Moon tonight!

Now Granddad's in Itikaf
only ten days are left
He's praying every night; dressed all in white
Hands held high with tears in his eyes
Asking for forgiveness and Paradise

Moon, Moon, come out soon
We're out to see the Ramadan Moon
Clouds shift; fog lift!
City put out your lights
We want to see the
Ramadan Moon tonight!

Now it's time again for Eid
Ramadan ran with speed
Will it come again?
Like an old friend?
Ramadan Moon
