The Ascension English Naat Lyrics

From the sacred house to jerusalem

Through the seven heavens did he ascent

To the love divine beyond where or when

Send peace on him and his family!

Balagha al-‘ula bi kamalihi

Kashafa ad-duja bi jamalihi

Hasunat jami’u khisalihi

Sallu ‘alayhi wa aalihi

Like a moon set sail on the heavens seas

Through the dark night riding on the lightning-steed

See! one born of earth strides the heavens fields!

Send peace on him and his family!

And the stars gave thanks and the moon did weep

As its beauty paled before the hashimi

For what sun or moon can compare to him

Send peace on him ad his family!

Balagha al-‘ula bi kamalihi

Kashafa ad-duja bi jamalihi

Hasunat jami’u khisalihi

Sallu ‘alayhi wa aalihi

As his heart was strengthened and purified

And was filled with wisdom and light on light

So the wells of zamzam he sanctified

Send peace on him and his family!

For the prophets-Adam (as) to Jesus Christ

Came to honour him and to pray behind

One from whose lamp they had received their light

Send peace on him and his family!

Balagha al-‘ula bi kamalihi

Kashafa ad-duja bi jamalihi

Hasunat jami’u khisalihi

Sallu ‘alayhi wa aalihi

And the gates of heaven so high and strong

Opened joyfully for the one called upon

And the angels sang peace on you welcome!

Send peace on him and his family!

When Gibril (as) did father Muhammad rose

Where no prophet not angle may approach

So beloved to the beloved returned

Send peace on him ad his family!

Balagha al-‘ula bi kamalihi

Kashafa ad-duja bi jamalihi

Hasunat jami’u khisalihi

Sallu ‘alayhi wa aalihi

For the peace that comes to surrendered hearts

For the mercy descending whet the prayer is called

For the blessings born of your charity

Send peace on him and his family!

Through perfection did he attain the heights

Through his beauty did he dispel the night

Oh! how blest are all of his qualities

Send peace on him ad his family!

Balagha al-‘ula bi kamalihi

Kashafa ad-duja bi jamalihi

Hasunat jami’u khisalihi
