नि में जाना जोगी दे नाल : बुल्लेह शाह

मक्के गायन गल मूक दी नाही पावें सो सो जुम्मे पढ़ आइयेह
Pilgrimage to Mecca would not suffice Even if you said a hundred prayers
गंगा गायन गल मूक दी नाही पावें सो सो गोते खायिएया
A trip to Ganges would serve no purpose Even if you took a hundred dips
गया गयां गल मूक दी नाही पावें सो सो पंड पर्हैयेह
Going to the Gaya temples would not help Even if you chanted a hundred mantras
बुल्लेह शाह गल तैयूं मूक दे जड़ों मई नु दिल्लों गवैयेह
Bulley Shah! The job shall only be done, When your heart is cleansed of your ego.
पढ़ पढ़ आलम फाज़ल होया कदी अपने आप नु पर्हेया ई
Much reading has made you a scholar, Yet not once have you read your inner self
जा जा वरदा मन्दिर मसीता कदी मुन् अपने विच वारर्या इ नई
You frequent every temple and mosque ,But never reach into your own heart
Aiwayn रोज़ शयतान नाल लार्दान कदी नाफ्स अपने नाल लार्र्य इ नई
Crusading against Satan endlessly , You yield to your temptations without a fight
बुल्लेह शाह आस्मानi उर्हीयाँ फर्दा जयरा घर बैठा ओह्नु फर्या ई नई
Bulley Shah! says You hunt for the prey Far out in the skies
जयरा घर बैठा ओह्नु फर्या ई नई
But never seek the game That lies within you

A thought went up...

A thought went up my mind to-day
That I have had before,
But did not finish,--some way back,
I could not fix the year,

Nor where it went, nor why it came
The second time to me,
Nor definitely what it was,
Have I the art to say.

But somewhere in my soul, I know
I've met the thing before;
It just reminded me--'t was all--
And came my way no more.

by--Emily Dickinson

What Did I Do Wrong . . .

We were so close together
Now so far apart
What happened in between
I can only feel in my heart

I wish you were here
To talk with me today
But I can't give a call
My body won't obey

Things seemed to be so perfect
Now they seem so wrong
I don't feel as though I know you
Where has our friendship gone

You used to be able to talk with me
About everything you felt
Now I feel I'm a stranger
My heart is starting to melt

We always used to talk
Until the middle of the night
I don't know what we talked about
But never once in a fight

I need you in my life
I need you as a friend
I need to laugh and cry with you
Forever 'till the end

I still don't know what has happened
Our friendship has lasted so long
But I can't help from wondering
What did I do wrong . . ?
