Ramadan Song

Salatullah!

Salaamullah!

Alayka Ya Rasol Allah

Hannanullah

Mannanullah

Ya Habeebe

Shay’an lillah (chorus)

The crescent moon

Portents Of boon

The fiends are gaoled

And blessings prevail

We sense a guest

Of pure finesse

Gracing our doors

Delusions’ cure

(Chorus)

O Ramadan!

Minder from harm

Reveal your charms

Despite our sins

We pray for peace

The wars’ surcease

O Gaza’s lights!

God shield your nights!

(Chorus)

The first ten days

Mercy our stay

The second ten

Pardon, amen

The last ten nights

Safety’s in sight!

O night of fate

Grant us your grace!

(Chorus)

RAMADAN KAREEM, 1446, 2025
