The lyrics of the song
Harqaton ka peghaam mile
Kehne se la illah illalah
Rehmato'n ka salaam mile
Bas kehne se Bismillah…
Bismillah Bismillah Bismillah
Bismillah…
Tere naam se shuru ho
Tere naam se khatam lillah
Bismillah Bismillah Bismillah
Bismillah…
Mushqile aasaan hui, Saari aafat tal gayi
Oh Allah O Allah… Allah
Nemate naazil hui marti khwahish pal gayi
