Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Malik ul mulk lashareeka lahoo
Wahadahoo laa ilaahaa illaahoo
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Yeh zameen jab na thii yeh jahaan jab na thaa
Chaand suraj na thay aasman jab na tha
Raaz-e-haq bhi kisi per ayaan jab na tha
Tab na tha kuch yahaan tha magar tu hee tu
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Sana bashar k liyeah bashar sana k liyeah
Tamaam hamd sazawaar hai khuda k liyeah
Ata k samnay yarab khata ka zikar he kya
Tu ata k liyeah hai bashar khata k liyeah
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Kiyoon piyaa ibn-e-haidar nay jaam-e-fanaa
Khaal khichwai tabraiz ne kiyoon bhala
Daar per charh ke mansoor nay kia kaha
Sab banatay khilonay lay raha tu he tu
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Laa ilaahaa teri shaan ya wahdahoo
Tu khayaal-o-tajassus tu he aarzoo
Aankh ki roshni dil ki awaaz tu
Tha bhi tu, hai bhi tu, hoga bhi tu hee tu
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo
Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo

Overall Meaning:
The phrase "Allah Hoo" translates to "God is" or "there is only God," and it serves as a recurring chant throughout the song. The first verse establishes the idea of God's oneness and coexistence with all things, proclaiming "Malik ul mulk lashareeka lahoo" which translates to "Master of the universe, with no one to share His power." The second verse describes a time before the earth, skies, and stars existed, emphasizing the eternal and limitless nature of God. The third verse switches to a more personal tone, reminding the listener of their own insignificance and the greatness of God, questioning why they would ever need anything beyond God's existence.
The fourth verse returns to a more universal theme, proclaiming that all praise is for God alone. The fifth verse references historical figures such as Ibn-e-Haidar and Mansoor, who were known for their spiritual insights and devotion to God. The final verse ties the themes of the song together, recognizing God's infinite nature through all aspects of life: from the physical world ("Aankh ki roshni dil ki awaaz tu" - "The light of the eyes and the voice of the heart are all from You") to the intangible ("Tu khayaal-o-tajassus tu he aarzoo" - "You are thought and curiosity, You are desire").
