Il Il a a h h i i Baksh Baksh ر ی ت � ی � ےھت �یسے ک ےک یہٰل شخب ا ریچخن وہ اک اُن ا ی ایگ آرخوہ ہک Strange indeed were the arrows of Il a h i Bakhsh, For ultimately he himself became their prey. ڑپی امر یک تنعل یک اُیس رپ اُس ارسار ی وت اھجمسوے � وک یئ مہ وک His curse struck upon his very own self— Will someone help me understand this mystery? ددلار وہ اتلم ی ہ ںیہن � ےس ربكت ار ی ےلم � وک ےس اُس ک ےلم وج اخ Arrogance does not lead one to the Beloved, The one who adopts utter humility becoming even as lowly as dust is the one who gets to meet the Beloved. ےس وج دل اگلوے ک یئ اُس اپ وک اپوے وک بت اُس وک آپ ک ے اپ رک He who seeks the love of the Pure One, Must first purify himself, for only then would he meet Him. ری اسک اخ وک اُس ےہ آیت دنسپ ابری ِ دراگہ رہ یہ ّل ل ذت Humility He loves, And self-abasement alone is the path to His court. بجع انداں ےہ وہ رغمور و رمگاہ وھچڑا ےہ ےب راہ وک اےنپ سفن ہک How foolish is he who is arrogant and misguided, Who allows his self to stray and wander aimlessly!
