Reason of Creation of Universe

God created universe for the love of Muhammad
Created sun and moon for the desire of Muhammad

Said be and was universe, written all from start to end
Recited Quran as a whole, for the glory of Muhammad

All saints had come, to mosque their faces daubed 
Said word of testament, for the noor of Muhammad

Companions had conquered, next ones emulate
Eight heavens laid out, for the love of Muhammad 

At skies birds flied, montanes and stones watered
Trees gave fruit, for the love of Muhammad

Infidels had come, from him they took faith 
Prayed five times a day, for the love of Muhammad

Jonah praised cause him Quran praised
Remember and say Salawat, for the love of Muhammad

MAHDI

From offspring of Muhammad
Comes Mahdi comes now
One night sleeps as a regular servant
Other morning wakes up with keys of heavens and the earth

Opens all the gates for hope
Knocks down all idols at a stroke
Sets up the holiest army of Islam
Takes next the breath of Jesus Christ
Conquers Mescid el Aqsa soils

Spreads to everywhere rules of Sharia 
Wears to his fingers seal of Solomon
Takes into his hands Moses' scepter
Demolishes dejjal and infidels' stronghold

Chosen of Eighteen Thousand Worlds'

Let my life for you sacrificed
His name lovely himself lovely Muhammad
Come and intercede to this helpless servant
His name lovely himself lovely Muhammad

Faithfuls suffer in this earth a lot
Hereafter there will be plesure and enjoyment
From eighteen thousand worlds' selected
His name lovely himself lovely Muhammad

Traveler of seven leveled skies
Above bound of Creator flied
In his ascension for Ummah prayed
His name lovely himself lovely Muhammad

Four caliphs are his paradise neighbor
Who is in love with him is away from evil
He is sultan of creations as a whole
His name lovely himself lovely Muhammad

What Dervish Jonah does in here without you
Real prophet without doubt and mistrust is you
Whom don't obey you faithlessly as an infidel go
His name lovely himself lovely Muhammad

I Asked to Yellow Flower

I asked to yellow flower
Do you have father or mother?
Flower says dervish father
Mother and father are ground

I asked to yellow flower
Do you have child or brother?
Flower says dervish father
Child and brother are fruit

I asked to yellow flower
Which sect do you fall under?
Flower says dervish father
Under Ummah of Muhammad we gather

I asked to yellow flower
Is rose your relative?
Flower says dervish father
Rose is Muhammad's lather

I asked to yellow flower
Why is yellow your colour?
Flower says dervish father
Cause we are close to mortal

I asked to yellow flower
Where do you take this color?
Flower says dervish father
From moon and sun's lighter

I asked to yellow flower
Do we know each other?
Flower says dervish father
Aren't you Jonah the lover

God, he is only one and peerless
There is only one God and Allah he is
(Chorus)

Nobody Reaches To Lord Until Leaving The Rest

Nobody reaches to lord until leaving the rest
Tresaure of heart can't be opened until it is the pure cleanest

Extract the mundane from the tongue so Lord manifests
Until it is flourished, Sultan will not settle to palace

Perceivers of the secret of dying before death
Have seen judgement day before the trumpet blowed

Face of Lord's house has been circumamblated by lovers
Without house of Mamur at the sky and Kaaba at the earth 

Shemsi burns continously at a strange sorrow
Wants to content Lord without being hated by public

I don't Know What to Do from Hands of Love

I don't know what to do 
From hands of love
Let me go on bloody 
From hands of love

Let me give my wealth
Let me attain God's consent
Let me be naked
From hands of love 

Word of Jonah
Became ash his core
Eyes are tearful
From hands of love

My place is montanes
My tears pour always
Steady blood cries
From hands of love

Dear Brightest Sun and Moon of Throne of Prophethood

Dear brightest sun and moon of throne of prophethood 
Oh, owner of messengercy, end times' prophet of Lord
For your glory "if it weren't for you" recited by God  
Namely you are the guide of universe dear Muhammad

Surah of Shems and Duha has come for the fame of your face
Light of ripeness of your honor brighten the universe
Dear Prophet of Lord intercede for Gazali's illness
Whom is a sinner of your ummah and one of public's helpless

Uways Al Qarani At The Yemen Country

God's lover prophet's dear friend
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country
Neither tell a lie nor eat prohibited
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country

At the dawn standing up wanded to road
With his thousand titles praised the Lord
Saying Allah Allah, grazed camels herd
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country

At his hand his baton from branch of date
At his waist his cardigan from camel hide
By his tongue never ever becomes mistake 
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country

Wish that i would go too, Jonah the Lover says
Wish to see his face that is lovely and blessed 
To the dust of his foot wish to daub my face 
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country

Your Ummah Has Been Line by Line

Your Ummah has been line by line 
Their eyes are full of cry
In and outsides are full of light
I have seen dear Prophet

Your garden I have watched
Placed the moment into my heart
At that minute real faith 
I have found dear Prophet

At your mosque I stood
To your tomb I stared
Was infinitely inspired
Overflowed dear Prophet

Face to face with Faithfuls
Knee to knee we seated 
Let you to us intercede
Kindly please dear Prophet

Lover have found his love
My heart is full of peace
What a blessed road it is
I have passed dear Prophet

My Tongue Doesn't Stop Says Allah Allah

My tongue doesn't stop says Allah Allah
My soul at my matter says Allah Allah

My ear and my eye, my legs and my arm
My malar and my face says Allah Allah

Do not get closer to the rest Kuddusi
Fellow of God says Allah Allah

Oh Allah dear my lord
Other than you there is no god 
Let you forgive my fault
Dear Most Merciful Allah

They are your servants
They have sins a lot
You are their Lord
Dear Most Merciful Allah

I am a ruin dear Sufficent
To the sorrow what is healing
Give me Muhammad's loving
Dear Most Merciful Allah

Let you forgive your lover
With sins that are great
Let you embroider love to heart
Dear Most Merciful Allah
