Man Kunto Maula

Man Kunto Maula is a Qaul Qawwali song composed by Amir Khusro in the praise of Ali ibn Abi Talib. This song is based on a hadith, i.e. a saying of the Islamic prophet Muhammad:


man kunto maulaa
fa haaza Ali-un maulaa

To whom I am the master
Ali is the master.


daaraa dil daaraa dil daar-e-daanii
tum tum taa naa naa naanaa, naanaa naanaa re
yaalaalii yaalaalii yaalaa, yaalaa yaalaa
