khola jab quran hafiz ne
to bismila kaha
jab suni tarif allah ki
subhan allah kaha
ahad me jab mila nime
mohammad to bana ahmad
kate sar ko uthaya aur ye kahne lage
sarmagar

ya khuda ya nabi, ya khuda ya nabi
ya khuda ya nabi, ya khuda ya nabi

When the Quran's words, the Hafiz did impart,
With "Bismillah" he began, a reverent start.
When praise of Allah, the verses did gleam,
"Subhan Allah!" arose, a radiant dream.
In covenant's heart, when Nimah did meet,
Muhammad transformed, Ahmad, complete.
His severed head lifted, a voice from above,
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi," a whisper of love.
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi, Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi."
Your names, a myriad, your glories abound,
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi," on hallowed ground.
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi, Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi."

The Muezzin's call, "Allah Hu Allah!"
"Allah Hu Allah, Allah Hu Allah!"
The bliss of devotion, "Allah Hu Allah!"
"Allah Hu Allah, Allah Hu Allah!"
Allah Hu Allah!
He is the God, of all, "Allah Hu Allah!"
In the Quran it's writ, "Allah Hu Allah!"
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi, Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi."
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi, Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi."

Through sandalwood forests, my journey did roam,
Through sandalwood forests, a wandering home,
The air of Madinah, it called to my soul,
The air of Madinah, made my spirit whole.
The ocean's held back by the desert's sand,
The ocean's held back by the desert's sand,
This sight, brought God's evenings to mind, so grand.
This sight, brought God's evenings to mind, so grand.
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi, Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi."
Your names, a myriad, your glories abound,
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi," on hallowed ground.

In temples and churches, and hearts of all men,
In temples and churches, and hearts of all men,
You reside in all things, yet unseen by the eye,
You reside in all things, beyond our sigh.
The birds sing your praises, with utmost respect,
The birds sing your praises, the heavens reflect,
Who is there that denies your Divine,
Who is there that denies your Divine?
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi, Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi."
"Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi, Ya Khudaya, Ya Nabi."
