Khuda jaane kahan se jalwaye jana kahan tak hai
Wahin tak dekh sakta hai nazar jiski jahan tak hai
Only God knows the limits of inifinte His Kingdom
Humans know to the confines of their finite mind
Hum itni bhi na samjhe aql khoi dil gawan baithe
Ke husn o ishq ki duniya kahan se hai kahan tak hai
I lost my mind and heart I could not figure out
Where the world of beauty and love begins- and where it ends
Zameen se aasman tak ek sannate ka aalam hai
Naheen maalum mere dil ki viraani kahaan tak hai
From earth to sky stretches an eerie wilderness
I kow not the extent of the ruins the desolation of my heart
Zameen se aasman tak aasman se la makan tak hai
Khuda jane hamare ishq ki duniya kahan tak hai
From the earth to the empyrean from the sky to placelessness
Only He knows the expanse of the hearts universe
Niyaz o naaz ki rudad husn o ishq ka qissa
Ye jo kuchh bhi hai sab unki hamari dastan tak hai
The stories of beauty of love
Whatever there is in the world, is the story of our love
Khayal e yaar ne to aate hi gum kar diya mujhko
Yahi hai ibteda to inteha iski kahan tak hai
With the very first thought of the Beloved I was lost to the world
If this be the beginning what would be its finale
Suna hai sufiyon se hamne aksar khanaqahon mein
Ki yeh rangeen bayani Bedam rangeen bayan tak hai
Once have I heard Sufis say in their retreats
These colourful words, Bedam, these soulful verses, ends here
- Kalaam by Hazrat Bedam Shah Warsi
