Lyrics:
قلبي على بابك سجد
My heart prostrates at Your doorstep,
يدعوك يا الله
calling to You O Allah!
مالي أنا غيرك أحد
I have no one else but You,
أدعوه واترجاه
to invoke and implore
قلبي أنا كلما ابتعد
Whenever my hearts strays away,
ذاق الألم والآه
it tastes pain and suffering
يطلبك يارب المدد
It asks for Your help,
الله يا الله
Allah, O Allah!
ربي أحبك للأبد
I will love You forever, my Lord
لولاك قلبي تاه
If it were not for You, my heart would have been lost
دوماً عليك المعتمد
My reliance is always on You,
في كل ما ألقاه
in everything that I face
دمعي على خدي ورد
My tears flow down my cheeks
يا خالقي رحماك
Have mercy on me, O my Creator!
أنت المعين أنت السند
You’re the one I seek help from and the one I rely on

طَلعَ البَدرُ علينا
The full moon rose over us
من ثنِيّاتِ الوَداعْ
From the valley of Wadaa’
وجَبَ الشُّكرُ علينا
And we owe it to show gratefulness
ما دَعا للهِ داعْ

كلُّ من في قُبا بِك قد رحَّبَ
Everyone in Quba (in Medina) welcomed you
والنَّشيدُ اعْتَلى فوق تِلك الرُبَى
And the sound of singing came from every corner
والنُفوسُ ارتَوتْ كلُّها طربَا
And their longing was quenched by the delight of seeing you
جئتَ يا سيدي مَعْدِناً ذهبَا
Your coming, my master, is more precious than gold
للكبيرِ أخاً، للصغيرِ أبَا
For the old you were a brother, for the young you were a father

Ashaab e Muhammad haq ke wali, Abu-Bakar Umar Usmaan-o-Ali
Yaraan e Nabi mein sab se jali, Abu Bakar Umar Usmaan-o-Ali
They are the closest companions
Most high in rank is their station
Among the gems they were chosen
The first to build our foundation.
These four our Prophet did entrust
Through whom the truth would reach to us
The pillars of his ways and his love
The beacons of his light for all of us.
The stars who guide us through the night
Their path: it leads to paradise
They are the roots, we are the leaves
We are raindrops, they are the seas.
And when the Prophet left this world
No harder time for all it felt
Then strength was found when they stood tall
They lifted and firmly held his torch.
Indebted to them how we are
They went great lengths for this Ummah
Their vision was on times later
They sacrificed so much for us.

أنا العبد الذي كسب الذنوبا وصدته الأماني أن يتوبا
أنا العبد الذي أضحى حزيناً على ذلاته قلقاً كئيبا
أنا العبد الذي سطرت عليه صحائف لم يخف فيها الرقيبا
أنا العبد المسيء عصيت سراً فما لي الآن لا أبدي النحيبا
أنا العبد المفرط ضاع عمري فلم أرع الشبيبة والمشيبا
أنا العبد الغريق بلج بحرٍ أصيح لربما ألقى مجيبا
أنا العبد السقيم من الخطايا وقد أقبلت ألتمس الطبيبا
أنا العبد الشريد ظلمت نفسي وقد وافيت بابكم منيبا
