Labh pe aati hai dua ban kay tamanna meri

Labh pe aati hai dua ban kay tamanna meri
zindagi sham ki surat ho khuda ya meri
zindagi sham ki surat ho khuda ya meri
Labh pe aati hai dua ban kay tamanna meri
ho mere dum se yuhi meri watan ki zeenat
jis tarah phool se hoti hai chaman ki zeenat
zindagi ho meri parwan ki surat ya rabb
ilm ki shamma se ho mujhko mohabbat ya rabb
ho mera kaam gharibo ki himayat karna
dard mando se, zaifo se mohabbat karna
mere Allah, burai se bachana mujhko
Neik jo rah ho us reh pe chalana mujhko
mere Allah, burai se bachana mujhko
Neik jo rah ho us reh pe chalana mujhko

* English Translation:

My longing comes to my lips as supplication of mine O God!
May like the candle be the life of mine!
May the world's darkness disappear through the life of mine!
May every place light up with the sparkling light of mine!
May my homeland through me attain elegance
As the garden through flowers attains elegance
May my life like that of the moth be,
O Lord! May I love the lamp of knowledge,
O Lord! May supportive of the poor
my life's way be May loving the old,
the suffering my way be O God!
Protect me from the evil ways
Show me the path leading to the good ways
