بُلّھے شاہBULLEH SHAHTHE LIVING VERSE
FROM THE WORDS OF BULLEH SHAH

Tūñ nahīoñ maiñ nāhīñ

Without you, I am not

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

Like a ruin's shadow, You move through my mind.

खोले दे परछावें वांङू, घुम रेहा मन माहीं ।

Without You, no I, beloved; without You, no I.

तूं नहीउं मैं नाहीं वे सज्जणा, तूं नहीउं मैं नाहीं ।

In my speech You speak; in my silence You dwell.

जां बोलां तूं नाले बोलें चुप्प करां मन माहीं ।

Without You, no I, beloved; without You, no I.

तूं नहीउं मैं नाहीं वे सज्जणा, तूं नहीउं मैं नाहीं ।

You sleep in my sleep, walk in my walking.

जां सौंवां तां नाले सौवें जां टुरां तां राहीं ।

Without You, no I, beloved; without You, no I.

तूं नहीउं मैं नाहीं वे सज्जणा, तूं नहीउं मैं नाहीं ।

The beloved came home, Bullah; I pour out my life.

बुल्ल्हा शहु घर आया साडे जिन्दड़ी घोल घुमाईं ।

Without You, no I, beloved; without You, no I.

तूं नहीउं मैं नाहीं वे सज्जणा, तूं नहीउं मैं नाहीं ।

THE POEM, GIVEN VOICE

One verse. Many voices.

Stay with the words.
Then hear how they travel.

Recording-specific YouTube auto-generated captions compared with canonical Punjabi line groups. Matching is limited to the lines explicitly mapped below.

ASR evidence, not a claim of auditory listening. Actual caption-segment start times are used; no invented end times or exact word boundaries. Uploader and YouTube explicitly disclose AI-generated content, including voice. Retained as an AI adaptation, not a historical human performance. Description reproduces the canonical stanza sequence; captions independently recover the refrain and speaking/silence stanza. Other ASR groups are too corrupted for precise mapping.

Players load only when you choose to listen. Performances can use excerpts or combine poems.
