Bismillah Lyrics
Version #1:
Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Raheem
In the name of Allah, Most Merciful Most Gracious
Allahu Allah Jalle Shaane Allah
Tera naam mein loon meyri ho ve tasalla
Chorus:
Allah Hu Allah Hu
Sana bashar ke liye hai bashar sana ke liye
Tamaam hamd sazavaar hai khuda ke liye
Ata ke samne Ya Rab khata ka zikr hi kiya
Ke Thu ata ke liye hai bashar khata ke liye
Voh rang laee hai rahmat Teyri sare mehshar
Ke dekh ata bhi tarsne lage khata ke liye
Version 2:
Bismillah hir Rahman nir Raheem
In the name of ALLAH. Most Gracious. Most Merciful
Thana bashr ke liye hai. Bashr thana ke liye
Tamaam hamd sazavaar hai khuda ke liye.
‘Ata ke saamne Ya Rab khathaa ka zikr he kiya.
Ke Thu ata ke liye hai bashr khataa ke liye.
Voh rang laaiy hai rehmat Teri sare mehshir.
Ke dekh ata bhi tarsne laghe khataa ke liye.
ALLAH Hu
ALLAH Hu ALLAH
Ya Rahmanu Ya ALLAH
Ya Raheemu Ya ALLAH
Ya Kareemu Ya ALLAH
Ya Salaamu Ya ALLAH
