Qasidah: Ayyuhal Mushtaq/Ya Ilahal Kawni
Ayyuhal Mushtaq/Ya Ilahal Kawni
'Ya Ilahal kawni ya sanadi
Anta ya mawlaya mu'tamadi
Fa bidunyaya wa akhirati
Ya ilahal 'arshi khodh biyadi
O Lord of the Universe, You are my support
It is on You, O my Master, that I rely
So in my life and in the hereafter
O Lord of the Throne, guide me
Chorus
Ma ra at 'aynun wa laysa tara
Mithla Ta-Ha fil wara bashara
Khayru man fawqath thara i sara
Tahirul a'raqi wash shiyami
No eye has ever seen, nor will it ever see
any human being the like of Ta-Ha
He is the best creature to have walked on earth
Both his lineage and character are pure
Chorus
Ayyuhal mushtaqu la tanami
Hadhihi anwaru Dhi Salami
an qaribin anta fil arami
inda khayril 'urbi wal 'ajami
O you who is in love, do not sleep
For over there are the lights of Dhi Salam
Soon you shall be in the sacred sanctuary
In the presence of the one who is the best
of Arabs and non-Arabs
Chorus
In tathakkarna ahibbatana
Wa ahlina wa jiratana
Ajabal lahu da'watana
Wa a'mmal kulla bin ni'ami
If we remember our loved ones
And our families and neighbours
Then Allah will answer our prayers
And He will shower His blessings on us all
Chorus
Wa salatul lahi lam tazali
Laka tuhda ma da'aka waliyy
Ma'a taslimin minal azali
Tantahi hatta ilal abadi
And the salutations of Allah continuously
Are sent to you whenever a saint remembers you
Along with blessings, for eternity
and they will never end
