I can’t defy saying
what comes to my lips,
But, if I speak the truth,
chaos created.
It saves time if I lie,
but its a deceit
My heart dislikes both
the truth and deceit
I’m afraid of both,
here and hereafter
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lips
Go slowly;
darkness moves away bit by bit,
Search thy light
within yourself bit by bit,
Why do people search for it
outside their spirit?
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lips
Whoever attained with
truth from Deity?
He gains knowledge of
his soul and his Deity!
He is thus the blessed soul
of the shrine of peace
Once elevated is never
broken down into pieces;
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lips
To be courteous
is verily essential
A norm that all follows
is essential
Deity is in every
human beings we know
If He is in me
then why not in you?
Sometimes Deity is seen,
at times hidden
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lips!
When Bullah Shah’s blessing
is with me
Without him,
there could none else be
Him ignoring of me
is but anguish and pain
My vision’s unable to foresee that pain
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lip
