Sultan Bahu
Dil dariaa samundron doonghe,
kaun dilaan dee jane hoo
wiche berre, wiche jherre,
wiche vanjh muhaane hoo
Chaudaan tabq dile de andar,
tamboo vaangan taane hoo
Joee dil daa maihram hove,
soee Rabb pachhaane hoo
kaun dilaan dee jane hoo
wiche berre, wiche jherre,
wiche vanjh muhaane hoo
Chaudaan tabq dile de andar,
tamboo vaangan taane hoo
Joee dil daa maihram hove,
soee Rabb pachhaane hoo
The heart is deeper than the ocean—
who can fathom its mysteries?
Storms come and go on its surface,
while fleets sail through it,
their crews wielding their oars.
inside the heart are the fourteen realms,
stretched like canvas tents,
Only the one who knows
these deeper secrets of the heart
can know the Creator, O Bahu
who can fathom its mysteries?
Storms come and go on its surface,
while fleets sail through it,
their crews wielding their oars.
inside the heart are the fourteen realms,
stretched like canvas tents,
Only the one who knows
these deeper secrets of the heart
can know the Creator, O Bahu
