Grace and Blessings of God 191 �ی�ار ش � ی � چ � �ی� ر رہ دم ب ح خ � ابد و دص ز اخر اب او لگ لگ ِ ادنر رجہ اخر Despite a hundred obligations, they are ever present in the Beloved’s court; When in His company, thorns are to them flowers; in His absence flowers are thorns. وت �ب�یک اخرے رباری دص اغفن اعاقشن دنخان اپبےئ اجن اشفن You wail and shout a hundred times when a single thorn pierces you, But those lovers remain cheerful even when sacrificing their lives. ٰیل انف ِ وم تمظع در اعاقشن واف از د �ی� � وت در�ی�اےئ ہ ئ رغق� The lovers are lost in the glory of their Lord; They are immersed in the ocean of Tau hi d [Oneness of God] on account of their fidelity. و رہم اشن ہمہ رہب دخاتس خ ی� ک� ن رہق دخاتس آ رہق اشن رگتسہ Their enmity, their friendship, is all for the sake of God; Even their fury, when it is shown, is, in fact, God’s fury. آن ہک در قشع ِ ادح وحم وانفتس ربک�ی�اتس ذات ز د آ�ی� زو رہہچ When one is lost and absorbed in the love of the One God, Whatever one does is the doing of the Greatest Being. �ی� ر قح اتس ت �ی� ر اُو � ت افین اتس و � اتس ِ قح ر چ�ی� ح خ � خ � درالص او د ص�ی� He is mortal, but his arrow is God’s arrow; His quarry is, in truth, God’s quarry.
