The words which best describe you, are the words of your creator. Every word He said about you, struck down all limits on your praise. The words which best describe you, are the words of your creator. Every word He said about you, struck down all limits on your praise.

قُلْ يا صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمًا نَبَدَى عَلَى حَبِيبٍ فَقِيرٍ قَلْبِ كُلِّ لِينِي

قُلْ يا صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمًا نَبَدَى عَلَى حَبِيبٍ فَقِيرٍ قَلْبِ كُلِّ لِينِي

قُلْ يا صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمًا نَبَدَى عَلَى حَبِيبٍ فَقِيرٍ قَلْبِ كُلِّ لِينِي
