Abida Parveen sjunger Bulleh Shah
Den gudomliga Abida Parveen sjunger Bulleh Shah.
O! Miyan
Love and Fire are similar
But Love has greater hurt
Fire burns wood and grass
But Love burns heart and liver
Water douses fire but
What’s the remedy of Love
Peer Ghulam Fareed says
There remains nothing else
Where Love decides to stay
Black, dirty my face and clothes
Inside too I am just Sins
Jama (robe) world calls me a saint
Fareed, wake up from your sleep and
Go see the world
If you find someone to forgive
So you may be also forgiven
Your love has made me dance
Like mad Thaiyya Thaiyya like mad
O Healer, come back soon
Else forsaken my life will end
Your love has camped in my heart
Cupful of poison I drank myself
O Great one, I have crossed over
O Healer, come back soon
Else forsaken my life will end
Peacocks sing in the groves of love
Bulleh Shah now go to that place
Where everybody is blind
Where none know your name or caste
Your greatness is of your caste too
Great also people of your city
My faults are of my caste too
At fault also people of my city
My beautiful beloved lives in Ka’ba
He injured me, then never asked for me
O healer come back soon
Else forsaken my life will end
Do not effortedly spin the rosary
What’s to count in a rosary
Unto Him who is Countless unto you
Why count anything with Him
Read thousand wise books
Never read your own self
Going into mosques and temples
Never entered your own heart
With the Devil O Man
But never fought yourself
Peer Bulleh Shah says
Man catches what’s in sky
But who resides in man’s heart
Him man is unable to catch
Bulleh Shah, I sit at Inayat’s door
He clothed me in robes of green and red
And caught me the instant
I Flew from my worldly shelter
O Healer, come back soon
