🎤 Full Naat Lyrics (Urdu + Roman Urdu)
Verse 1
Urdu:
अरे हाजिओ ! तुम हरम जा रहे हो
ब-सद एहतिराम इक पयाम ‘अर्ज़ करना
मज़ार-ए-मुक़द्दस पे जब हाज़री हो
मेरा भी नबी से सलाम ‘अर्ज़ करना
Roman Urdu:
Are hajiyo ! Tum haram ja rahe ho
Ba-sad ehtiraam ik pyaam ‘arz karna
Mazaar-e-muqaddas pe jab haazri ho
Mera bhi Nabi se salaam ‘arz karna
(Repeat after every verse)
Verse 2
Urdu:
ये कहना कि इक उम्मती बे-सहारा
है बेचैन वो दर्द-ए-फ़ुर्क़त का मारा
ये कहना मदीने से वो दूर रह कर
फिरे दर-ब-दर सुब्ह-ओ-शाम ‘अर्ज़ करना
Roman Urdu:
Ye kehna ki ik ummati be-sahaara
Hai bechain wo dard-e-furqat ka maara
Ye kehna Madine se wo door reh kar
Phire dar-ba-dar subh-o-shaam ‘arz karna

“O Pilgrims! You are going to the Haram (Kaaba).
With utmost respect, convey this message:
When you visit the sacred shrine (in Madinah),
Present my salaam to the Prophet.”
