The tune was originally that of "La Rosalie", a popular song in the Seychelles during the 19th century, originally written by French composer Pierre-Jean de Béranger. It was adopted as Perak's royal anthem by Sultan Abdullah Muhammad Shah II, who was exiled in the Seychelles for abetting murder.

In 1957, the national anthem of Malaysia, "Negaraku" was set to the melody of "Allah Lanjutkan Usia Sultan".

Allah Lanjutkan Usia Sultan

Dilanjutkan Allah usianya Sultan
Adil dan murah memerintah watan
Ditaati rakyat kiri dan kanan
Iman yang soleh Allah kurniakan
Allah berkati Perak Ridzuan
Allah selamatkan Negeri dan Sultan.

 دلنجوتکن ﷲ اوسياڽ سلطان
عاديل دان موره ممرينته وطن
دطاعتي رعيت کيري دان کانن
ايمان يڠ صالح ﷲ کورنياکن
ﷲ برکتي ڤيراق رضوان
ﷲ سلامتکن نݢري دان سلطان.‎

[dilandʒutkan allah usiaɲa sultan]
[adil dan murah məmərintah watan]
[ditaʔat raʔjat kiri dan kanan]
[iman jaŋ soləh allah kurniakan]
[allah bərkati pəraʔ ridzuan]
[allah səlamatkan nəgəri dan sultan]

A long life may God grant to our Sultan
Reigning just and kind o'er the land!
We shall obey his every command
May our faith be true, by Allah's hand
O God almighty, bless Perak adobe of grace
God save our state, God save our Sultan!
