Shah Abdul Latif poetry

Shah Abdul Latif 


 Poem in English
 


If you are seeking Allah,

Then keep clear of religious formalities.

Those who have seen Allah

Are away from all religions!

Those who do not see Allah here,

How will they see Him beyond?


Let us go the land of Kak

Where love flows in abundance,

There are no entrances, no exits,

Every one can see the Lord!


There is no light nor day

Every one can see the Lord!

Those who love the Lord

The world cannot hold them.

Palaces do not attract them,

Nor women nor servants

Nothing binds them:

The renouncers leave everything behind.


A message came from the Lord:

A full moon shone

Darkness disappeared

A new message came from the Lord:

It does not matter what caste you are

Whoever come, are accepted.


Where shall I take my camel,

All is Light...

Inside there is Kak, mountain and valley,

The Lord and the Lord: there is nothing but the Lord.


[English version by D. H. Butani]

Wind blew! The sand enveloped the body,

Whatever little life left, is to see the beloved.
