All the poetry ever written

Every verse and every line

All the love songs in the world

And every melody and rhyme

If they were combined

They would still be unable to express

What I want to define

When I try to describe my love for you

Mawlaya salli wa sallim da’iman abadan

‘Ala habibika khayril khalqi kullihimi

Salawatu Allahi ‘aleeh

Every sound and every voice

In every language ever heard

Each drop of ink that has been used

To write every single word

They could never portray

Everything I feel in my heart and want to say

And it’s hard to explain

Why I could never describe my love for you

Mawlaya salli wa sallim da’iman abadan

There’s not a single person

Who can ever match his worth

In character and beauty

To ever walk on earth

I envy every rock and tree

And every grain of sand

That embraced his noble feet

Or that kissed his blessed hands

Ya Rasool Allah Ya Habiba Allah

Grant us the chance to be with him

We pray to You Allah
