*Ali Maula, Ali Maula*
Man Kunto Maula
shaah-e-mardaaN
sher-e-yazdaaN
quvvat-e-parvardigaar
laa fataa illaa Ali
laa saif illaa zulfiqaar
King of the brave,
lion of God,
[and] strength of God.
There is no one like Ali [and]
there is no sword like Zulfiqaar*.
* Zulfiqaar was the sword of Ali presented to him by Muhammad.
Ali imaam-e-manasto manam Ghulaam-e-Ali
hazaar jaan-e-giraamii fidaa-e-naam-e-Ali
Ali is the master of all, I am the slave of Ali
thousands life are to be sacrificed for Ali.
man kunto maulaa
fa haaza Aliun maulaa
To whom I am the master
Ali is the master.
Note: A famous tradition (hadith) of Prophet Muhammad. Ali was his cousin and son-in-law.
daaraa dil daaraa dil daar-e-daanii
tum tum taa naa naa naanaa, naanaa naanaa re
yaalaalii yaalaalii yaalaa, yaalaa yaalaa
Mystical chants sung by Sufis without any specific meaning.
In some versions, Nusrat has also recited the following stanza:
Ali shaah-e-mardaaN imaamun kabiiraa
ke baadasht nabii shud bashirush naziiraa
Ali is the king of the brave and the great leader
because after the Prophet there is Ali.
Ali imaam-e-manasto manam Ghulaam-e-Ali
hazaar jaan-e-giraamii fidaa-e-naam-e-Ali
Ali is the master of all, I am the slave of Ali
a thousand lives are to be sacrificed for Ali
Note: Ali was the cousin and son-in-law of Prophet Muhammad. He is especially revered by the Sufi mystics.
Haidariam qalandaram mastam
bandaa-e-Murtaza Ali hastam
peshvaa-e-tamaam virdaaram
ke sage kuu-e-sher-e-yazdaanam
Haider [Ali] is the generous monk
Ali is the chosen one [by God]
[and] the leader of the people swaying in [God’s] remembrance
I am the dog of the streets of God’s lion.
kabhii diivaar hiltii hai, kabhii dar kaaNp jaataa hai
Ali kaa naam sun kar ab bhii Khaibar kaaNp jaataa hai
Sometimes the wall shakes, sometimes trembles the door
on listening the name of Ali, the fort of Khaibar trembles even now.
Note: During the fight for the Fort of Khaibar, Ali rooted out the heavy door of the fort and used it as his shield.
Shaah-e-mardaaN Ali..
Ali..Ali…Ali…
Ali Maula Ali…
King of the brave
Ali
Ali, [my] master Ali.
patthar pe alam deen ka gaaRaa jisne
lalkaar kar Marhab ko pichaaRaa jisne..

*Koi To Hai Jo Nizam-e-Hasti Chala Raha Hai*
ko’ii to hai jo nizaam-e-hastii chalaa rahaa hai..
Wohii Khudaa hai..Wohii Khudaa hai..Wohii Khudaa hai…
dikha’ii bhii jo na de nazar bhii jo aa rahaa hai
Wohii Khudaa hai, Wohii Khudaa hai, Wohii Khudaa hai
(Someone is there who is managing the order of life
He is God, He is God, He is God
He is invisible still He can be seen
He is God, He is God, He is God)
nazar bhii rakhe sama’ateN bhii…Wo jaan letaa hai niyyateN bhii..
jo Khaana-e-laa-shauur meN jagmagaa rahaa hai…Wohii Khudaa hai..
Wohii Khudaa hai, Wohii Khudaa hai, Wohii Khudaa hai..
(He keep eyes and ears too, He knows even the intentions
The one who is illuminated in our subconscious minds
He is God, He is God, He is God)
Talaash us ko na kar butoN meN.. Wo hai badaltii hu’ii rutoN meN
Jo din ko raat aur raat ko din banaa rahaa hai…Wohii Khudaa hai
Wohii Khudaa hai…Wohii Khudaa hai..Wohii Khudaa hai
(Do not search for Him in the idols, He is in the changing seasons
The one who is changing day to night and night to day
He is God, He is God, He is God)
