Jo Rang Rangia Gurha Rangia
Dyed in the Guide’s Crimson
Two ways into the same verse. Tap a line to find its echo.
Ahad flowers as Ahmad—lift the mim, my friend.
आहद विचों अहमद होया, विचों मीम निकाली ओ यार ।
Between the two a tumult rises; clear your eyes, my friend.
दरमुआनी दी धूम मची है, नैणां तों घुंड उठाली ओ यार ।
Deep, deep the dye has entered me—the guide's red glow, my friend.
जो रंग रंगिआ गूढ़ा रंगिआ, मुरशद वाली लाली ओ यार ।
Ya-Sin, Muzzammil: that presence thunders from the cloud, my friend.
सूराएयासीन मज़मल्ल वाला, बदला गरज संभाली ओ यार ।
Flash the shining hand through those dark locks, my friend.
ज़ुलफ स्याह दे विच यद बैज़ा, दे चमकार विखाली ओ यार ।
Deep, deep the dye has entered me—the guide's red glow, my friend.
जो रंग रंगिआ गूढ़ा रंगिआ, मुरशद वाली लाली ओ यार ।
Die before death—slay the dead and bring them back to life, my friend.
मूतू-कबला-अंता-मूतू होया, मोयां नूं मार जवाली ओ यार ।
Bulleh's love has entered home; dance and let us see, my friend.
बुल्ल्हा शौह मेरे घर आया, कर कर नाच वखाली ओ यार ।
Deep, deep the dye has entered me—the guide's red glow, my friend.
जो रंग रंगिआ गूढ़ा रंगिआ, मुरशद वाली लाली ओ यार ।
