Ya Rab Dil-e-Muslim ko - Shehzad Roy




Not technically a song--it's poetry by Allama Iqbal sung by Shehzad Roy.
Again, the person who uploaded the video was kind enough to translate. Less work for me :)
I just want to spread the goodness..



O Lord! To the Muslims heart grant that live Longing
Which may warm the heart, which may restlessness to the soul grant

Again brighten up every speck of dust of the Valley of Faran
Again Longing for the Spectacle, taste for the asking grant

Again to the one deprived of the Spectacle the discerning eye grant
Whatever I have seen, to others also its sight grant

Again guide the strayed away deer towards the Haram
To the one addicted to city, vastness of wilderness grant

Again in the forlorn heart create the Last Days tumult
Again to this empty camel-litter the lover of Lailah grant


In the darkness of this age to every perturbed heart
That mark of Love which may embarrass the moon grant

In elegance raise the Muslims goals to the level of Thurayyah
Self-respect of the ocean, freedom of the sea shore grant

Love should be pure, candor fearless should be
Grant Light to hearts, hearts like crystal grant

Grant the feeling for signs of the calamity
In todays tumult concern for tomorrow grant

I am the wailing nightingale of a ruined rose garden
I am the supplicant for acceptance, O Benevolent one alms to the beggar grant
