Текст песни Nigah-e-Darwaishaan (Abida Parveen) с переводом

Maula… maula… maula… ho maula

O God!

Na khuda maseehtay labda

God is not found in mosques

(repeat)

Na khuda vich kaabay

Nor in the Kaaba

Na khuda quraan kittabaan

God is not in the Holy Scripture

Na khuda namazay

Nor in prayers

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

(repeat)

Sanu pyaar da, dildaar da

The Beloved, the very dear

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

(repeat)

Na rab arsh mu allah uttay

God is not in the skies

(repeat)

Na rab khanay kaabay hoon

Nor in Kaaba

Na rab ilm kittabi labhaa

God is not in books about religion

Labhaa, na, na, na… labhaa

I could not find him anywhere…

Na rab ilm kittabi labhaa

God is not in books about religion

Na rab wich mehraab-e ho

Nor in the minarets

Gaanga teerath mool na milya

God is not on the banks of Ganges

Painday baihisaab-e ho

The pilgrimages have all been in vain

Jab da murshid milya baaho

When Bahu finds the Beloved

Chutti sab azab-e ho

All miseries disappear

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

Sanu pyaar da, dildaar da

The Beloved, the very dear

Maula… Ali, ali, ali, da

(repeat)

Bulleh Shah, Bulleh Shah kaun hai

Who is Bulleh Shah?

Bulleh Shah, au kaun hai

Who is Bulleh Shah?

Uttam tera yaar

Who is your supreme friend?

(repeat)

Us key haath Quran…

In one hand, he holds the Quran

Us key gal zonaar

In his neck, he wears the holy thread

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

Sanu pyaar da, dildaar da

The Beloved, the very dear

(repeat)

Maula da, maula, maula da, maula da

God…

Kalaay maidayy kapray, tay kala maida bhais

My clothes are black and so is my appearance

(repeat)

Ghunaah hi bharya mein phirain, log kahain dervish

I am full of sins but these people call me a mystic

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

(repeat)

Uth Faridon suttya, uth Farida

Farid, wake up from your sleep

Duniya vaikhan jaa

Go see the world

Jai koi mil jaye bakhshiya tey too vi bakhsha jaye

If perchance you encounter the forgiven to be forgiven

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

(repeat)

Masjid dhaa dey

Tear down the mosques

Mandir dhaa dey

Tear down the mandirs

Dhaa dey jo kuch dhaindha

Tear down whatever can be brought down

Par kisi da dil naa dhaa

But don’t break anyone’s heart

Rab dilon vich rainda

For God resides there

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

Sanu pyaar da, dildaar da

The Beloved, the very dear

(repeat)

Dil ki bisaat kya thee

But then what is the worth of this heart

Nigah-e-jamal mein

In front of the Beloved’s eyes

Ik aina tha toot gaya dekh baal mein

It’s like a mirror that broke whilst caring

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

(repeat)

Raati jaagay sheikh sada mein

You keep awake at night and consider yourself pious

Tey raati jagan teh thee uttay

But (Bulleya) even dogs stay awake the whole night

Dar malik da mool na chadhtay, tau sau sau pawnday juttay

These dogs would not abandon the posts at their master’s abode even if battered

with shoes

Chal way miyan Bulleya, chal yaar mana lay

Come on Bulleya, let’s go and pacify Him

Nahin tay baazi lay gaye kuttay, tain thee uttay

Otherwise the dogs steal the game

Sanu ishq laga hai pyaar da

I am smitten by the Beloved

(repeat)

Maula maula … pyaar da

Maula, maula, ali, ali

Yaari yaari, yaari, yaari

God…

(Translation by A.H. Akhund)
