Sing along

Sung by Layan · Layth follows along

  1. Some are tall and some are small
  2. Some can run and some may crawl
  3. Some move fast and some move slow
  4. Different ways our bodies grow
  5. When we laugh or when we cry
  6. Tears are tears from every eye
  7. When we fall, we feel the same
  8. Our bodies heal from hurt and pain
  9. We come in every shape and size
  10. With different homes and different lives
  11. From every corner, every land
  12. Each one made by Allah’s hand
  13. Some can see and some are blind
  14. Some speak slow, some may sign
  15. Some need help to stand or pray
  16. Still we laugh the same each day
  17. When we laugh or when we cry
  18. Tears are tears from every eye
  19. Different needs along the way
  20. Still our hearts can feel the same
  21. We come in every shape and size
  22. With different homes and different lives
  23. From every corner, every land
  24. Each one made by Allah’s hand
  25. Some have different shades of skin
  26. Some are big and some are thin
  27. Some are from another land
  28. Still we’re equal, hand in hand
  29. Some are sick and need more care
  30. Some have lost all of their hair
  31. Some feel lonely, out of place
  32. We treat all with love and grace
  33. We come in every shape and size
  34. With different homes and different lives
  35. Every soul has equal worth
  36. In Allah’s grace since our birth
  37. Side by side, we learn to be
  38. One big human family

What this song is about

Everyone is built differently — tall or small, running or crawling, fast or slow, some who cannot see, some who sign instead of speaking, some who need help to stand or to pray, some who are ill or have lost their hair, every shade of skin and every country. The song answers the same way each time: each one made by Allah's hand, every soul of equal worth, one big human family.

What your child learnsThat difference is ordinary and everyone is worth the same — disability, illness, how someone looks and where they come from change nothing about how they should be treated.

Questions parents ask

How do I talk to my child about disability?

This song does it by naming differences without ranking them: some can see and some are blind, some speak slow and some may sign, some need help to stand or to pray. Every verse lands the same way — each one made by Allah’s hand.

Does the song cover more than disability?

Yes. It also names skin colour, body size, illness, losing your hair, which country you come from, and feeling lonely or out of place. The chorus answers all of them at once: every soul has equal worth.

What does “one big human family” mean?

It is the line the whole song builds toward. The differences are real and it lists them honestly — the point is that none of them changes what a person is worth. Read more →
