Sehar Ka Waqt Tha Naat Lyrics

Sehar ka waqt tha masoom kaliyan muskura rahi thin
Hawain khair-e-maqdam ke tarane gunguna rahi thin

Abhi Jibraeel bhi aaye na thay Kaabe ke mimbar se
Ke itne mein sada aayi hai Abdullah ke ghar se

Mubarak ho Shah-e-Do Sara tashreef le aaye
Mubarak ho Muhammad Mustafa ﷺ tashreef le aaye

Woh Muhammad ﷺ fakhr-e-aalam, badshah-e-ins-o-jaan ﷺ
Syed-ul-Mursaleen ﷺ, Sultan-e-Arab, Shah-e-Umam ﷺ

Ek din Jibraeel se kehne lage Shah-e-Umam ﷺ
Tum ne dekhe hain jahan, batao to kaise hain hum ﷺ?

Arz ki Jibraeel ne, aye Shah-e-Deen ﷺ, aye Khatam-ur-Rasul ﷺ
Aap ﷺ ka koi hum-misal hi nahi, Rab ki qasam

Na koi aap ﷺ sa hoga, na koi aap ﷺ jaisa tha
Koi Yousuf se pooche Mustafa ﷺ ka husn kaisa tha

Zameen o aasman mein koi bhi misaal na mili
Durood un ﷺ par, salaam un ﷺ par, yahi kehna Khuda ka hai

Khuda ke baad jo hai martaba “Salli Ala” ka hi
Wohi Sardar-e-Aalam hain, wohi Mukhtar-e-Ummat hain

Wohi ﷺ to Hashr ke maidan mein sab ki shafaat hain
Shafaat ke liye sab ki nazar un ﷺ par lagi hogi

Do mehboob ﷺ se barh kar guzara ho nahi sakta
Yeh woh dar hai ke jis dar se kinara ho nahi sakta

Qasam Allah ki logo! mera iman kehta hai
Nabi ﷺ ka naam liya na sahara ho nahi sakta

Nabi ﷺ ke chahne walon ke dil mein woh muhabbat hai
Nabi ﷺ ke zikr mein meri aankhon se behna ruk nahi sakta

سحر کا وقت تھا معصوم کلیاں مسکرا رہی تھیں
ہوائیں خیرِ مقدم کے ترانے گنگنا رہی تھیں

ابھی جبرائیل بھی آئے نہ تھے کعبے کے منبر سے
کہ اتنے میں صدا آئی ہے عبداللہ کے گھر سے

مبارک ہو شہِ دوسرا تشریف لے آئے
مبارک ہو محمد مصطفیٰ ﷺ تشریف لے آئے

وہ محمد ﷺ فخرِ عالم، بادشاہِ انس و جاں ﷺ
سیدُ المرسلین ﷺ، سلطانِ عرب شاہِ امم ﷺ

ایک دن جبرائیل سے کہنے لگے شاہِ امم ﷺ
تم نے دیکھے ہیں جہاں بتاؤ تو کیسے ہیں ہم ﷺ؟

عرض کی جبرائیل نے اے شاہِ دیں ﷺ، اے ختمِ رسل ﷺ
آپ ﷺ کا کوئی ہم مثل ہی نہیں رب کی قسم

نہ کوئی آپ ﷺ سا ہوگا نہ کوئی آپ ﷺ جیسا تھا
کوئی یوسف سے پوچھے مصطفیٰ ﷺ کا حسن کیسا تھا

زمین و آسماں میں کوئی بھی مثال نہ ملی
درود اُن ﷺ پر سلام اُن ﷺ پر یہی کہنا خدا کا ہے

خدا کے بعد جو ہے مرتبہ صلِّ علیٰ کا ہی
وہی سردارِ عالم ہیں، وہی مختارِ امت ہیں

وہی ﷺ تو حشر کے میدان میں سب کی شفاعت ہے
شفاعت کے لئے سب کی نظر اُن ﷺ پر لگی ہوگی

دو محبوب ﷺ سے بڑھ کر گزارا ہو نہیں سکتا
یہ وہ در ہے کہ جس در سے کنارہ ہو نہیں سکتا

قسم اللہ کی لوگو! مرا ایمان کہتا ہے
نبی ﷺ کا نام لیا نہ سہارا ہو نہیں سکتا

نبی ﷺ کے چاہنے والوں کے دل میں وہ محبت ہے
نبی ﷺ کے ذکر میں میری آنکھوں سے بہہ نہیں سکتا

This Naat revolves around five major themes:

1. The Blessed Birth of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

The opening lines describe a spiritual dawn:

A divine moment unfolding

In classical Naat tradition, nature often symbolizes spiritual joy at the Prophet’s birth.

2. Divine Announcement
