sun fariyaad peeraan deya peera
mai aakh sunaavaan keenu hoo
wehre saade varhdaa naaheen
te mai lakh vaseele paavaan hoo
na mai sohni na daulat palle
te mai keekan yaar manaavaan hoo
eho dukh hamesha raihsee bahoo
ke mai rondaree mar jaavaan hoo
ishq mahi ne laayiaan aagan

onha lagiyan kaun bujhaave hoo
me ki jaana jaat ishq di kehi
jehdi dar dar jaa jhukaave hoo
ishaq mahi ne laayiaan
onha lagiyan kaun bujhaave hoo
me ki jaana jaat ishq di kehi
jehdi dar dar jaa jhukaave hoo
na khud sove na sovan deve
hathi sutiyaan aan jagave hoo
mai qurban tinhaan de bahoo
jehra wichre yaar milave hoo

Hear my plea, O Peer of Peers,
To whom shall I pour out my tears?
My Beloved, He does not come near,
Though a million paths I revere.

How then can I appease my Dear?
This sorrow will forever adhere,
Until, in weeping, I disappear.
Love's fire, my Beloved, drew near.

Who can quench the flames I bear?
I know not the nature of love's despair,
That makes the bravest bend in prayer.
Love's fire, my Beloved, drew near.

It neither sleeps nor lets me be,
Wakes me when slumber holds me dear.
I sacrifice myself to those, you see,
Who reunite me with my Peer.
