O God! God is not found in mosques Nor in the Kaaba God is not in the Holy Scripture Nor in prayers I am smitten by the Beloved The Beloved, the very dear I am smitten by the Beloved Nor in Kaaba God is not in the skies God is not in books about religion I could not find him anywhere… God is not in books about religion Nor in the minarets God is not on the banks of Ganges The pilgrimages have all been in vain When Bahu finds the Beloved All miseries disappear I am smitten by the Beloved The Beloved, the very dear Divine, O King of Kings Who is Bulleh Shah? Who is Bulleh Shah? In one hand, he holds the Quran Who is your supreme friend? In his neck, he wears the holy thread The Beloved, the very dear I am smitten by the Beloved God… I am full of sins but these people call me a mystic My clothes are black and so is my appearance I am smitten by the Beloved Go see the world Farid, wake up from your sleep If perchance you encounter the forgiven to be forgiven I am smitten by the Beloved Tear down the mosques Tear down the mandirs Tear down whatever can be brought down But don’t break anyone’s heart For God resides there The Beloved, the very dear I am smitten by the Beloved But then what is the worth of this heart In front of the Beloved’s eyes It’s like a mirror that broke whilst caring I am smitten by the Beloved You keep awake at night and consider yourself pious But (Bulleya) even dogs stay awake the whole night These dogs would not abandon the posts at their master’s abode even if battered with shoes Come on Bulleya, let’s go and pacify Him Otherwise the dogs steal the game I am smitten by the Beloved God…Divine
