Lyrics
Badar gaa he zeeshaane khairul anaam.
Shafeeul waraa mer jhae khaa so aam.
Basad ijizo minnaat basad ihtiram.
Ye kar taa he arz aap kaa ik ghulam
Kie shaahi ko neen, Ali maqaam.
Kie shaahi ko neen, Ali maqaam
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam…….
Hasiinaani alaam hue sharm gheen.
Jodey ka wo husn nur wo nuree jabeen
Pir us par wo akhlaq akmel tareem
Key dushman bi kehney lagey afreen
Zahey khul ki kaamil, zahey husn taam. Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam……..
Zahey khul ki kaamil, zahey husn taam. Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam……..
Khalaa ik key dil tey yaqeen sey taheen
Butoney key haq ki jagey ghaer lii
Zalaalat ki dunya pey wo chaara hii
Ki tauhid duhundey sey mil tiinatii
Huwa aap key dam sey, uska qayam.
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam……..
Huwa aap key dam sey, uska qayam.
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam……..
Muhabbat sey Qhaayel kiya aap ney
Dalaayel set Ghaayel kiya aap ney
Jahaalat ko Zaayel kiya aap ney
Shariat ko kaamil kiya aap ney
Bayan kar diyay Sab halal o haraam
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam….
Bayan kar diyay Sab halal o haraam
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam…….
Nabuwwat key they jis qadar bhi Kamal
Vo sab Jamaal hain aap main la muhal
Sifaat e Jamaal aur sifaat e Jalaal
Har ik rung hai bas adeemul misaal
Liya zulm ka afv sey inteqaam.
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam…….
Liya zulm ka afv sey inteqaam.
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam…….
Muqaddas hayaat aur mutaahar mazaaq
Itaa’at main yaqtaa ibaadat main taaq
Sawaari jahangeer yaqran buraaq
Key biguzisht az kas rey kneeli rawaaq
Muhammad hi naam aur , Muhammad hi kaam.
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam……..
Muhammad hi naam aur , Muhammad hi kaam.
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam……
Alamdaare ushaaq zaate yagaan
Sipah daare af waaje Quddusiyaa
Ma aarif ka ik qulzum main bai karaa
Ifaazat main zindae jaa wi daa
Pilaa saa ki yaa ab kow sar ka jaa
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam……
Pilaa saa ki yaa ab kow sar ka jaa
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam……
Alaikas salaato Alaikas salaam…..
