Hayya A'laa Khairil Amal

Hasten towards the best of deeds (2)

Ali Ali Ali Ali Ali Ali

Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali (2)

Kya Takhte Sulemaa'n Ki Haqeeqat Mere Aage Uddh Kar Bhi Woh Aflaaq Se Niche Hi Raha Hai Hai Sarhade Sidhra Se Bhi Aage Meri Parvaas Kadmon Ne Ali Ke Mujhe Rutbaa Yeh Diya Hai

What is the reality of Solomon's throne before me? Even in flight, it remained below the heavens. My flight soars even beyond the boundaries of the Lote Tree (Sidrat al-Muntaha), It is the feet of Ali that have granted me this status.

Haider Haider Haider

Haider, Haider, Haider (2)

Haider Ka Mussalla Hu Main Haider Ka Musalla Rehta Hai Mere... Rehta Hai Mere Zere Qadam Arshe Moalla Haider Ka Mussalla Hu Main Haider Ka Musalla

I am the prayer mat of Haider, I am the prayer mat of Haider (3) There remains beneath me... There remains beneath my feet the Exalted Throne (Arsh-e-Moalla). I am the prayer mat of Haider, I am the prayer mat of Haider (2)

Din Dhalte Gaye Aur Guzarti Rhi Raatein Tanhaai Mein Karte Hue Allah Se Baatein Mujhpar Hi Mere Maula Ne Ghazi Ko Tha Maanga

The days kept fading and the nights kept passing, While in solitude, He (Ali) conversed with Allah. It was upon me that my Master prayed for Ghazi (Abbas).

Taukeer o Sharaf Lafz Hai Main Unki Haqeeqat Iss Baat Se Samjhe Yeh Zamaana Meri Hurmat Mujhko Kabhi Zahra Kabhi Zainab Ne Bichhaaya

Honor and nobility are just words; I am their reality. Let the world understand my sanctity through this fact: Sometimes, Zahra, and sometimes Zainab, would spread me out.

Allah Nahi Hai Ali Allah Ka Wali Hai Duniya Ko Daleel Iski Faqat Mujhse Mili Hai Sach Maine Kiya Surah e Ikhlaas Ka Daawa

Ali is not Allah; Ali is the Wali (friend/representative) of Allah (2). The world received the proof of this only through me. I validated the claim of Surah al-Ikhlaas.

Khaamosh Shabe Aqde Ali Tha Main Adab Se Jab Chaadare Zahra Pe Ali Karte The Sajde Aukaat Meri Kya Thi Ke Uss Waqt Main Kehta

I was silent on the night of Ali's wedding, out of respect, When Ali would prostrate upon the veil of Zahra. What status did I have, that I could have spoken at that moment?

Tarteeb Mei Aage The Nabi Peeche The Haider Jab Bayte Muqaddas Se Mude Kaabe K Rukh Par Kuch Pal Ko Mere Peeche Tha Sarwar Ka Musalla

In the order, the Prophet was in front and Haider was behind, When they turned from the Sacred House (Bayt al-Muqaddas) towards the direction of the Kaaba, For a few moments, the prayer mat of the Master (Sarwar) was behind me.

Is Baat Ki Tasdeeq Khudaz Qaul Nabi Hai Jo Aashiqe Haider Hai Namaazi Hi Wahi Hai Munkir Jo Wilaayat Ka Hai Dushman Hai Woh Mera

The confirmation of this fact is the Prophet's own word: Whoever is a lover of Haider is the only true one who prays. Whoever denies the Wilayat is an enemy of mine.

Maula Ka Mussalla Bhi Hu Khairaat Ka Dar Bhi Anguthi Mere Saamne Maula Ne Ataa Ki Jab Haath Badha Tha Toh Main Kadmo'n Mei Pada Tha

I am the Master's prayer mat, and also the door of charity. The Master bestowed the ring right before me; When the hand was extended, I was lying at His feet.

Ek Din Yeh Samaa Sab Ko Nazar Aega 'Akbar' Kaabe Mei Bicchaaenge Jo Maula Mujhe Aakar Eesa Ka Musalla Mere Peeche Hi Bichhega

One day, everyone will see this scene, 'Akbar', When the Master will come and spread me in the Kaaba, And the prayer mat of Isa (Jesus) will be spread behind me (2).
