    I think it would be easier and more beneficial that you post the lyric of one nasheed at a time and then perhaps we can summarize..

    Assalamu alaikum,

    The book of Allah (KetabAllah)

    This Koran unites us
    It guides us to the path of goodness

    Almighty Allah revealed it
    And his prophet is our teacher

    This Koran is the guide for our grandfathers and grandsons
    It motivates to knowledge and work
    Nothing except it edifies us

    It’s the book of Allah
    Nothing except it edifies us
    Let us follow it

    It’s the greatest miracle of Allah
    It tells us about the secret of universe

    All mighty Allah revealed it
    And his prophet is our teacher
    Let us follow its rules
    Let’s go on Arab




    The Veil (Al Hejab)

    Let them say about my veil
    That it’s killing my youth

    Let them exaggerate in blaming me
    I belong to Religion

    No, I swear I would never care
    My firm will is like the mountain

    Beauty has no meaning
    If it is easy to get

    They tried to deceive me
    I shouted at them to leave me

    I will remain in my decency
    I will never accept impudence

    They will never affect my pride
    I am the symbol of purity

    I walk in the light of piety
    Behind the best prophet

    I have a proud soul
    That rejects lowliness

    In my path, brother
    Sumayyah* is the example to follow

    I am guided by Religion
    Our source is pure, sister

    Our path is a path of chastity
    Follow it without fears

    Our Religion is symbol of virtue
    It never accepts vice

    You are the respectable daughter of Religion
    You are the descendant of notables

    By my veil and decency
    I impose my self-respect

    I will go ahead
    And never care about blames

    [* Sumayyah Radhiallahu anha was a great Sahabiyyah (Companion), the story of her Martydom under torture is well worth reading about here: http://oum_abdulaziz.tripod.com/famous9.htm ]



    Advance (Fartaqi)

    Advance in goodness and rise to the horizon
    Sublimity wanted from Muslims
    You are the symbol of pearls and glories
    Abandon the mud and rise to the sky
    You will never see a night without a star
    Run up the flags and go ahead
    Light the lamp and be determined
    Overcome the terrors however dark they are
    Always advance by your firm will
    Be a mole and symbol for people
    Who seeks glory and sheds tears
    Under the cover of dark night
    Or raises dust in the enemy’s face
    Heaven has perfect magic
    Always advance by your firm will
    And be like mole and inspirational symbol for people



    How strange (Ajaban)

    How strange is man’s carelessness
    He passed through life with pride and peace
    I thought of life it became my home
    Like some passengers homes
    The comfort of people union in it is one
    Its littleness and plenty are the same
    Till when is my endurance?
    As if I were underground and then blessed with two fellows
    I want multiply of more and more
    If I confined my self to what’s little, it would have been enough
    How good parents are
    As if I am displeased with my place by being close to them
    Worries prepare me to the world
    Searching for my dignity in disgrace
    Denying me if the moist earth was piled up over me
    Hide and deserted me



    The world of pride (Dar al ghoroor)

    Isn’t everything is forthcoming,
    And everyone has his own destiny on earth
    People like to live long lives but death is creeping to them
    Time is a witness on people, between distracted and pointed arrow
    Many people we saw passing away
    They all went to an embracing hole
    Where the dear ones are safe
    He is always deficient
    One day he is young and another he grows old
    Doesn’t man wander at himself as it ages
    If you find fault with something, Don’t do it

    Leave what you suspect for what is not suspicious
    Are you deceived with a bright day, a dark night or a setting sun
    Don’t think that it is a world of pride
    Don’t you get that you are stranger in it




    The student (Talib al-ilm)

    By Knowledge, rather by morals
    You achieve the highest ranks
    Live scholars lives
    And read varieties of books

    Be always humble
    Don’t boast of your ancestry
    It’s enough to come out the realm of mankind with noble descent

    Yes, yes but I am without a mother or a father
    I aspire to sublimity
    And I do not have money to satisfy my needs

    Who will ever embrace me and grant me
    I wish I have the position of the star
    And to be a scholar
    As knowledge is the heritage of the prophet

    Oh! Brothers I entrusted you
    You are the rest of Arabs
    Support a student who are asking

    Provide him with what he needs
    Yes, is there anything better than
    Teaching a boy




    Many you complain (Kam Tashtaki)

    Many you complain and say that you are poor
    While you own the earth, the sky and the stars
    The fields with their flowers, fragrances, the breeze and
    The singing nightingale are all yours
    Water is all around you like sparkling silver
    Sun is above you like burning gold
    The light builds and sometimes destroys embellishing pearls
    On foots and at the tops
    The world received you so cheerfully
    So why are you gloomy
    And it smiled for you
    So why don’t you smile
    If you are depressed for past glory
    How far it will return by sighs
    If you are afraid from befalling misfortunes
    How far it will be prevented by gloom
    Or if you have passed your youth
    Don’t say time became old
    As time does not age
    Look still appearing from moist earth
    So beautiful pictures that they would almost speak

    Jerusalem is calling us (Al Qudsu Na Deena)

    Jerusalem, you are our hope
    Jerusalem will return to our nation

    We will purify your virgin ground
    And will run up on you our flags

    Have patience sons of Palestine
    Allah will relieve our agonies

    Jerusalem will return to be our home
    And will return to be our country

    The dark night will never come
    Except the dawn follows it with its brightness




    Ramadan

    Ramadan has came and fasting has begun
    Bringing joy to everyone (family and friends)
    I wish it was (like this) all the time

    Glorifying Allah, pious, submissive
    Muslims, faithful and worshipping Allah


    Our month is that of fasting, deliverance (from Hell fire) and honest piety
    Our day is that of patience with kindness to the tears of the needy

    It’s the body of reformation
    It is prevention from obscenity
    It paves the way for forgiveness, its morals is a dressing purity
    My brother in Islam
    Don’t kill your sound heart

    And avail of Ramadan, the month of benevolence
    As long as you are living.


    Oh who see! (Ya Man Yara)

    Oh! who see the mosquito spread its wings
    In the darkness of the black night

    And see its vein in its upper chest
    And the brain in these thin bones

    And see blood running in its jugular vein
    Moving from one joint to another

    Forgive me
    For what I have previously done

    And see the embryo nurturing inside it
    In the darkness of its innards without looking

    And see its footsteps
    In its quick and rushing movements

    And see and hears other beings
    In the bottom of the dark and huge sea

    Forgive me
    For what I have previously done




    Oh Eid! (Ya Eid)

    Oh Eid! you are a gift from our creator God
    You excite in us the joy of eager
    You bring us together with our relatives and friends
    You overwhelm us with mercy like a streaming well
    It’s our habit to visit people so kindly
    No hatred, no bitter feeling, no arrogance at all
    Getting up by your greatening the generous and every disobedient
    And the couple may return hugging
    The disputers may reconcile
    And the children joy, many fly into the horizon!
    Overwhelmed by happiness at home and the markets
    The children and the adult are in such a race
    Joyful with what is like the kohl in the eyes
    Seizing a tasty opportunity
    May Allah maintain their happiness
    And make us always meet
    Do not separate us as separation is bitter




    Oh Most Magnificent! (Ya Adeeman)

    My soul is brightened by a light in my heart
    When I praised God of mankind
    And my soul is cheered up and the tears were flowing
    Oh God! guide my heart to reason
    In the tranquility of the night I pray during worshiping
    While the black darkness is all around me
    Oh Kind! Oh Most Merciful! Oh Most Forbearing!
    Oh Kind! Your gifts are endless
    Oh All-Hearing! Oh Answerer! Oh Most Magnificent!
    Oh Creator of the strong predatory animals! Guide me
    Guide me to truth, God
    I depend on your guidance today
    Oh God of the universe! you are my aid
    You are the refuge of man in the afterworld
    Here I am God, asking your forgiveness
    Forgive me and grant me my wish



    Long Longing (Taweel As Shawq)

    A Longing person remains in alienation
    He has no friends in life
    Who trust the world of misfortunes
    You trample on fellows in the dust
    I wonder at the one who wants you while he knows
    That you are the strangest of creation
    Except for the beautiful meaning that I have
    I would not have stayed in it
    I found Allah, God of the Universe
    All the creatures love him
    There are many evidences that he is the One
    Despite the false arguments
    Contemplate on the Most Merciful abilities
    You will be guided to truth
    Look everywhere
    Your question will be answered
    Shift from earth shades
    Do not ever be deceived by mirage
    Stand on the graves, it’s a memory
    That you will thank and then you will forget
    Recite tones of Koran
    Reward will keep you away from punishment
    Follow a guide wise prophet
    Rays of wisdom from everywhere


    Zayed the Benevolent (Zayed Al Wafaa')

    May your day for the nation be of sincerity!
    May your love for earth be lasting!
    You are like a pen that expresses us
    You built glory like strong mountains
    You inspired the nation to be benevolent
    May you have a long life as you achieved the nation’s wishes
    Zayed the benevolent, ask about him in the north,
    South, highlands and lowlands
    You unite people, since we have known you
    You love all people not individuals
    Through the gulf and oceans they’ve known Zayed
    They have known Zayed for his spreading generosity
    For all the glory we had
    Without you we would have never been united
