Words of Sufi [Buelleh! Ki jaana main kon]
Kalam of Bulleh Shah (Punjabi) | Translation in English |
Bulleh! ki jaana main kon Bulleh! Na main momin vich maseetaan Na main vich kufar diyan reetaan Na main paakaan vich paleetaan Na main moosa na Firoun Bulleh! ki jaana main kon Na main andar ved kitaabaan, Na vich bhangaan na sharaabaan Na vich rindaan masat kharaabaan Na vich jaagan na vich saun. Bulleh! ki jaana main kon. Na vich shaadi na ghamnaaki Na main vich paleeti paaki Na main aabi na maen khaki Na main aatish na main paun Bulleh!, ki jaana main kon Na main arabi na lahori Na main hindi shehar nagauri Na hindu na turak peshawri Na main rehnda vich nadaun Bulleh, ki jaana main kon Na main bheth mazhab da paaya Ne main aadam havva jaaya Na main apna naam dharaaya Na vich baitthan na vich bhaun Bulleh , ki jaana main kon Avval aakhir aap nu jaana Na koi dooja hor pehchaana Maethon hor na koi siyaana Bulla! ooh khadda hai kon Bulla, ki jaana main kon | Says Bulla, who knows who I am! I am not in the mosque of the believer, Nor in false rites. I am not in the pure or the impure. Neither Moses nor Pharaoh. Says Bulla, who knows who I am! I am not in the Vedas or holy books, Not in drug or wine. Not in the drunkards wasted intoxication, Not in wakefulness or sleep. Says Bulla, who knows who I am! I am not in sorrow nor in joy, Neither in clean nor unclean. I am not water, I am not earth, I am not fire, I am not air. Says Bulla, who knows who I am! I am not from Arabia or Lahore, Nor from India or Nagaur. Neither a hindu or muslim from Peshawar, Nor do I live in Nadaun. Says Bulla, who knows who I am! I cannot be unearthed in the mysteries of religion. I was not born of Adam and Eve. I am not the name I assume. I am not in stillness, not in movement. Says Bulla, who knows who I am! Finally, I only know myself. I cannot know any other. Who could be wiser than I? Bulla asks, who then, stands here? Says Bulla, who knows who I am! |
