Lyrics
Aye rab
Shaam au savere
Dar dar basere
Mein dhoondhta phira
Aye rab
Hoon kis firaaq mein
Kiski taak mein
Mein ghoomta phira
Alaap
Sooni khamoshiyon se
Tanhayiyon se
Hoon mein ghira
Yu hi
Shaam au savere
Dar dar basere
Mein dhoondhta phira
Aye rab
In beheki nigaho ko
Pheli si bahon ko
De de tu aasara
Mein hi dhoondhta phira
Ghoomta … baawra
Mein hi dhoondhta phira
Mein hi ghoomta phira
Rab rab karde
Budde ho gaye
Mulla pandat sarey
Rab da khunj khurra na lubha
Sajde kar kar haare
Rab ta tere andar wasda * 2
Vich Qur’aan ishare
Bulle Shah rab unhon mil si
Jeda apne nafs nu mare
Aye rab
Shaam au savere
Dar dar basere
Mein dhoondhta phira
Aye rab
Hoon kis firaaq mein
Kiski taak mein
Mein ghoomta phira
Aye rab
In beheki nigaho ko
Pheli si bahon ko
De de tu aasara
Mein hi dhoondhta phira
Ghoomta …… baawra
Mein hi dhoondhta phira
Mein hi ghoomta phira
Translation:
O Lord
I roam door to door
Night and Day
In search of you and in search of answers
O Lord
what I'm searching for & looking for
As I go around in circles
looking for you, for answers
I am enveloped in deafening silence and loneliness
In your quest…
O Lord
I roam door to door
Night and Day
In search of you and in search of answers
O Lord
Take this lost gaze
These outstretched arms
Into your shelter
I search for you
For answers
Like a vagabond
I roam the earth searching for you..
All the priests have grown old shouting out the lords name, looking for him
No one has actually got a clue as to where the Lord is ?
No matter how many rituals they perform
All this while the Lord actually is to be found inside you
The scriptures too point in that direction
Bulle shah says only those who kill their inner negativity will actually find the Lord
O Lord
I roam door to door
Night and Day
In search of you and in search of answers
O Lord
what I'm searching for & looking for
As I go around in circles
looking for you, for answers
O Lord
Take this lost gaze
These outstretched arms
Into your shelter
I search for you
For answers
Like a vagabond
I roam the earth searching for you..
