Tell me, Majnun, towards which shore do you gaze?
Tell me, Majnun, towards which shore do you gaze?
Your Laila, does she appear dark to your eyes?
Tell me, Majnun, towards which shore do you gaze?
Your Laila, does she appear dark to your eyes?
Majnun replied, his spirit ablaze:
Ah, your eyes, they simply cannot see.
If you saw through my eyes, the vision,
If you saw through my eyes, the vision,
Your own form, you could not keep.
In Vedas, in the Quran, they speak,
In the ink, they have rendered darkness.
O, Ghulam Farid, where eyes have met,
O, Ghulam Farid, where eyes have met,
There, what is fair, and what is dark, dissolves.
