Daal dilaan wich dil jo aakhen



Daal dilaan wich dil jo aakhen,
So dil door daleelon hoo.
Dil daa daur agohaan keeje,
Kasrat kanon qaleelon hoo.
Qalb kamaal, jamaalon, jismon,
Jauhar jaah jaleelon hoo.
Qibla qalb munavvar hoiaa,
Khalwat khaas khaleelon hoo.
-
A heart among hearts:*
The heart that is sublime beyond comprehension.
When your heart advances in contemplation of God,
It will comprehend how there is unity in diversity.
The heart is the essence of divinity in man;
In form and beauty it is the symbol of perfection.
When I contemplated on my true Firend
In the privacy of my inner self,
The temple of my heart will illumined with his light.
*
(In Sufi parlance, the heart means the eye centre, the third eye, the spiritual heart of our very being)
