Samjho khuda ke waaste azmat
Quran ki
dono jahaan pe chaayee hai rahmat
Quran ki
For God's sake note the
greatness of the Qur'an
Both
worlds are encompassed by the greatness of Qur'an
Qaole
Nabi hai Mominon Quran
padha karo
Ahmed ke jaisi zindagi tum bhi
jiya karo
barsegi tum pe dekhna rahmat
Quran ki
Samjho khudake......
The Prophet said: Read
the Qur'an
Live like Ahmad, you too
You will receive the
Mercy from the Qur'an
For God's sake note the
greatness of the Qur'an
Rabne
Quran bheja hai zindon ke
waaste
Duniya Quran padhti hai murdon
ke waaste
Haathon se hum banaate hain
turbat Quran ki
Samjho khudake...
Allah (subhanau taala)
has sent the Qur'an for the living
The world recites Qur'an
for the dead
By our own hands we make
a grave for the Qur'an
For God's sake note the
greatness of the Qur'an
Akhbaar aur risaalon ko
palkon pe rakhliya
Allah ki kitaab ko taaqon
mein rakhdiya
Muslim ke haathon hoti
hai zillat Quran ki
Samjho khudake...
Newspapers and magazines
go on our eyelids
Allah's book has been
placed on the shelf
Qur'an is being ridiculed
by the Muslims
For God's sake note the
greatness of the Qur'an
Ramadhan ke maheene mein
Allah ke qareeb
Gyaarah maheene hum to
hain shaitaan ke qareeb
Bolo kahaan se paayenge
barkat Quran ki
Samjho khudake...
We are close to Allah in
the month of Ramadhan
(But) for eleven months
we remain close to shaitan
How can we get the
blessings of Qur'an
For God's sake note the
greatness of the Qur'an
Naize pe to
Hussain ne Quran suna diya
Sookhe labon se fatha ka
ailaan kar diya
Shabeer ne bachaayee hai
hurmat Quran ki
Samjho khudake...
Husayn (alaihi salam)
recited the Qur'an while (his head was erected) on a lance
He proclaimed victory by
his dry lips
Shabbeer has saved the
honour of the Qur'an
For God's sake note the
greatness of the Qur'an
Taqwey ke saath zindagi
Haamid guzaar lo
Kirdaare Mustafa se tum
khud ko sanwaar lo
Waqtey ajal bhi lab pe ho
midhat Quran ki
Samjho khudake...
Hamid, live your life with
TAQWA
Adorn yourself by
emulating the Prophet
(Make sure) that you are
praising the Qur'an while dying
For God's sake note the
greatness of the Qur'an
