Complete Lyrics and Translation
Koi Aap Sa Dekha Nahin (No One Like You Has Ever Been Seen)
Khuda ka noor tujhmein hoo-ba-hoo hai
Khuda pinha magar tu roo-ba-roo hai
Teri azmat ka andaza ho kis ko
Khuda hai aur khuda ke baad tu hai
Chorus:
Koi aap sa dekha nahin, koi aap sa dekha nahin
Dekhne ko, ya Muhammad! Yoon toh kya dekha nahin
Haan! Magar mehboob koi aap sa dekha nahin
Ek se ek badh kar haseen dekhe magar, Ya Mustafa!
Tumse badh kar husn wala doosra dekha nahin
Yoon toh saare Nabi mohtaram hain magar
Koi aap sa dekha nahin, koi aap sa dekha nahin
Rasool aur bhi aaye jahan mein lekin
Koi aap sa dekha nahin
Meem ka parda hata kar wo nigaah-e-shauq se
Mustafa ko dekh le jis ne, Khuda dekha nahin
Soorat ko teri dekh ke kuch mooh se na nikla
Nikla toh yeh nikla
Koi aap sa dekha nahin, koi aap sa dekha nahin
Main toh kar sakta nahin jannat ki baatein shauq se
Woh kare jis ne dayar-e-Mustafa dekha nahin
Dekhne ko, ya Muhammad! Yoon toh kya dekha nahin
Complete Naat Lyrics in Hindi:
ख़ुदा का नूर तुझ में हू-ब-हू है
ख़ुदा पिन्हा मगर तू रू-ब-रू है
तेरी 'अज़मत का अंदाज़ा हो किस को
ख़ुदा है और ख़ुदा के बा'द तू है
कोई आप सा देखा नहीं, कोई आप सा देखा नहीं
देखने को, या मुहम्मद ! यूँ तो क्या देखा नहीं
हाँ ! मगर महबूब कोई आप सा देखा नहीं
इक से इक बढ़ कर हसीं देखे मगर, या मुस्तफ़ा !
तुम से बढ़ कर हुस्न वाला दूसरा देखा नहीं
यूँ तो सारे नबी मोहतरम हैं मगर
कोई आप सा देखा नहीं, कोई आप सा देखा नहीं
रसूल और भी आए जहान में लेकिन
कोई आप सा देखा नहीं
मीम का पर्दा हटा कर वो निगाह-ए-शौक़ से
मुस्तफ़ा को देख ले जिस ने ख़ुदा देखा नहीं
सूरत को तेरी देख के कुछ मुँह से न निकला
निकला तो ये निकला
कोई आप सा देखा नहीं, कोई आप सा देखा नहीं
मैं तो कर सकता नहीं जन्नत की बातें शौक़ से
वो करे जिस ने दयार-ए-मुस्तफ़ा देखा नहीं
देखने को, या मुहम्मद ! यूँ तो क्या देखा नहीं
English Translation of Naat:
The light of God is reflected in you
God is hidden, yet you are visible
Who can truly understand your greatness?
There is God, and after Him, there is you
Chorus:
No one like you has ever been seen, no one like you has ever been seen
Many have looked, O Muhammad! But what have they truly seen?
Indeed! No beloved has ever been seen like you
I have seen many beautiful beings, O Mustafa!
But no one is as beautiful as you
Though all prophets are honoured and revered
Yet, none have ever been like you
Many messengers came to this world
But none were ever like you
Removing the veil of 'Meem' with a longing gaze
Whoever has seen Mustafa, has seen God
When I saw your blessed face, I was left speechless
If anything escaped my lips, it was this:
No one like you has ever been seen, no one like you has ever been seen
I cannot speak of the wonders of Paradise with certainty
Only the one who has witnessed the land of Mustafa can do so
Many have looked, O Muhammad! But what have they truly seen?
