Allah Allah Agithna

الله الله أغثنا

Arabic text

الله الله أَغِثْنَا يَا رَسُولَ الله
يا عَظِيمَ الجَاهِ عَلَيْكَ صَلَواتُ الله
عَبْدٌ بِالبَاب يَرْتَجِي لَثْمَ الْأَعْتَابِ
جُدْ بِالْجَوابِ مَرْحَبًا قَدْ قَبِلْناه
أَنْتَ المَعْروف بالجودِ مَقْرَى الضُّيُوف
إِنِّي مَلْهُوفٌ أَغِثْنِي بِحَقِّ اللَّهُ
أَنْتَ الحَبِيبُ الْأَعْظَمُ سِرُّ المُجيب
حاشا يَخِيبُ مَن لَاذَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ
داوِ قَلْبِي وَامْنَحْهُ سِرَّ الْقُرْبِ
وَاجْلُ رَبِّي وَالحِقْنِي بِأَهْلِ الله
شَوْقِي إِلَيْكَ دَائِمًا رُوحِي لَدَيْكَ
لَثمًا عَلَيْكَ يَرْتَجِي عَبْدٌ أَوَّاهُ
صَاحِبُ الحَضْرَةِ أَكْرِمْنَا مِنْكَ بِنَظْرَةٍ
يا أبا الزَّهْرَاءِ وَالقَاسِمِ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ
طَيْرُ القَمَرِ قُمْ غَرِّدْ مَعَ الْفَجْرِ
وَاغْنَمْ أَجْرِي وَاسْتَنْجِدْ بِرَسُولِ الله
أَنْتَ الْحَبِيبُ بِذِكْرِكَ قَلْبِي يَطِيبُ
حاشا يَخِيبُ مَن لَاذَ بِرَسُولِ الله
أَنْتَ الْمُخْتَارِ بِمَدْحِكَ تَجَلَّى الْأَكْدَارُ
يَنْجُو مِنْ النَّارِ مُحِبُّك يَا رَسُولَ الله
دَاوِ صَبَّكَ وَامْنَحْهُ دَوْمًا قُرْبَكَ
مَنْ أَحَبَّكَ مَلْحُوظٌ بِعَيْنِ اللَّهِ
أَنْتَ الرَّسُولُ الْأَكْرَمِ أَبُو البَتُول
أَصْلُ الْأُصولِ مُحَمَّد حَبِيبُ اللَّهُ
صَلَّى الوَدودُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ طَهَ المَحْمُود
آلِ أَسْوَد وَصَحْبٍ وَمَنْ والاهُ
