In 1930, Syed Hamzah ibni al-Marhum Syed Safi Jamalullail, the fifth Raja of Perlis, and at the time serving as Vice President of the Perlis State Council, composed the tune to Amin, Amin, ya Rabiljalil.

Jamalullail then asked R. G. Iles, the State Engineer, to transcribe and harmonise it, since he was not proficient at reading or writing music.

[1] Subsequently, the tune was orchestrated by Captain Edgar Lenthall, bandmaster for the Central Band of the Royal Malay Regiment.

[1] Amin, amin, ya Rabiljalil, Doa hamba yang sangat zalil, Tinggikan daulat serta adil, Kekal perintah Jamalullail.

امين⹁ امين⹁ يا رب الجليل⹁دعاء همبا يڠ ساڠت ذليل⹁تيڠݢيکن دولت سرتا عاديل⹁ککل ڤرينته جمال الليل.‎ [amin amin ja rabiljalil] [doa hamba jaŋ saŋat zalil] [tiŋgiankan daulat sərta adil] [kəkal pərintah dʒamalullail] Amen, amen, O majestic Lord, Hear the prayers of your wards, Uphold he whom is just and sovereign, May Jamalullail forever reign.
