ISHQ KAMAAL
Jis tann lageya Ishq kamaal
Naache besur te betaal
Jis de andar vasseya yaar
Uthheya yaaron yaar pukaar
Na o chaahe raag na taar
Ainven baithha khede haal
Bulla Shauh nagar sach paaya
Jhoothha raula sab mukaaya
Sacheyaan kaaran sach sunaaya
Paaya uss da paak Jamaal
Translation -
Whoever is stung by perfect love,
He dances out of tune!
He dances out of step!
In whose heart the Beloved dwells
He loudly proclaims, “Beloved! O Beloved!”
He needs neither a musical string or a melody
He revels in ecstasy of his own accord
O Bullah, I have found the Lord’s true abode,
All false uproar, all religious disputes have come to an end.
For the truthful, I proclaim the Truth
I’ve had the vision of His pristine glory
