Assalamu alaykum! Well, a while back I transcribed the whole punjabi
naat by Hadrat Pir Sayyid Mihr Ali Shah sahib rahmatullah alayhi
along with additional verses added by Azam Chishti sahib rahmatullah
alayhi a famous na’at poet of Pakistan. I thought I would add it
here. (The starred stanzas ** are
by Hazrat Pir Sayyid Mihr Ali Shah Golrawi rahmatullah alayhi).

786/92

**aj sik mitraaN dee vadheeRi ay
kyon dilree udaas ganeree ay
looN looN vich shawq changeri ay
aj nainaaN laiyaaN kyon jhaRiyaaN!

JaiRee lazzat rovan andar
O vich bayaan nai’eeN aavay
Rona dil dee mel utaaray
Naalay man dee rog gavaavay

Rona ishq dee shaan vidaavay
Naalay ruThray yaar milaavay
A’zam rovan dhovan waala
Kadee dozakh vich na jaavay

**Mukh chan badr shah shaani ay
Matthay chamkay laaT noorani ay
Kaali zulf tay akh mastaani ay
Mahmoor akheeN hain madh bhaRiyaaN

Kee `ijaz nazar vich teri
JaiRa aavay ohh vik jaavay
Paishaani tay chamak noorani
Vich nainaaN kajal suhaavay

Lambi zulf mahboob mere dee
Tay jeevaiN lambi raat hijr dee
Matthay vichoN laaTaaN niklan
Tay jeevaiN tal’at mihr sehr dee

Nain niraalay mast raseelay
Vich jhalak `maa zagha’ basr dee
A’zam chamak dandaaN day aagay
Kee qeemat qadr gohar dee!

**Is surat nooN mein jaan aakhaaN
Jaanaan ke jaan-e-jahaan aakhaaN?
Sach aakhaaN tay Rabb dee shaan aakhaaN
Jis shaan tooN shaanaaN sab baniyaaN

**Subhan Allah! Maa ajmalaka
Maa ahsanaka, maa akmalaka

Shahenshah des Arab diya
Tay tera vas da ravvay Madina
Kee aakhaaN kis mooN naal aakhaaN
Mera roshan kar day seena

Kee awqqat meri kyon aakhaaN
Mera kar jaa paaD safeena

Jibra’eel jayhay tere dar tay
Aithay A’zam kawn kameena?

**Kithay Mihr Ali kithay teri sanaa
Gustaakh akheeN kithay jaa aRiyaan!
