Main Pa Parhian Ton Nassna Han

I Flee the Merely Learned

Two ways into the same verse. Tap a line to find its echo.

I flee the learned ones.

मैं पा पढ़िआं तों नस्सना हां ।

I flee the learned ones.

मैं पा पढ़िआं तों नस्सना हां ।

Let someone judge with fairness; then I will speak.

कोई मुनसफ्फ हो निरवारे तां मैं दस्सनां हां,

I flee the learned ones.

मैं पा पढ़िआं तों नस्सना हां ।

My scholarly brothers—your learning has unsettled my mind.

आलम-फाज़ल मेरे भाई पा पढ़िआं मेरी अकल गवाई,

Let love lift me, and I will tell you.

दे इश्क दे हुलारे मैं दस्सनां हां,

I flee the learned ones.

मैं पा पढ़िआं तों नस्सना हां ।
