In Praise of the Prophet

So long as the heart doth pulsate and beat,

So long as the sun bestows light and heat,

So long as the blood thro' our veins doth flow,

So long as the mind in knowledge doth grow,

So long as the tongue retains power of speech,

So long as wise men true wisdom do teach,

The praise of God's prophet, Ahmed the best,

Shall flow from our lips and spring from our breast.


'Twas Rosul-Allah from darkness of night

Did lead us to Truth, did give to us Light,

Did point out the path, which follow'd with zest,

Leadeth to Islam and gives Peace and Rest.

Praise be to Allah! 'Twas He who did send

Ahmed Muhammed, our Prophet, our Friend.
