Ya Rasool Allah (یا رسول اللہ) — Urdu Lyrics
یا رسول اللہ یا رسول اللہ
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لو
یا رسول اللہ یا رسول اللہ
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لودلِ غمگین کو مسرور کردو
زندگی کا مقصد پورا کردو
آپ کے در کا میں ہوں گدا
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لویا رسول اللہ یا رسول اللہ
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لونہیں کوئی غیر تیرے سوا
تُو ہی ہے میرا آسرا
دردِ دل کا اب چارہ کردو
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لویا رسول اللہ یا رسول اللہ
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لومیری بخشش کا سامان کردو
میرے دامن کو پاک کردو
آپ کا احسان ہو مجھ پہ سدا
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لویا رسول اللہ یا رسول اللہ
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لوجو تجھے یاد کرے ہر گھڑی
اس کی حسرت نہ رہے کوئی
مجھ کو اپنی محبت دو
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لویا رسول اللہ یا رسول اللہ
مجھ کو اپنی پناہ میں لے لو

Mujh ko apni panah mein le lo
