I am so thirsty of your didar
please fulfil this expectation
I am thirsty and I adore You (I depend on You)
how come You do not worry about me?
This humble adorer has special personal services for You
(and yet) I do not know how will You turn to me?
O my sullenly cross Lord ...1
Please listen to my prayers O my Lord
do not stay incommunicative from your maid-servant
O Lord do grant my wishes
O I am greatly unhappy
If you grant me the wishes of my heart,
O the Beneficient One
I shall be most happy ...2
Like fish without water, how can I live without my Beloved?
I am giving up my life for my Lord (look at the fish)
it is so lonely without water
look how much it does, it wriggles and flounces out of uneasiness
(but) all its wriggling and flouncing do not help
because the fisherman does not take pity ...3
False is the love of the bumblebee
the didar of the Lord cannot be done this way
(the ways of the bumblebee)
false is the love of the bumblebee
it keeps on moving from bud to bud enjoying the nectar
like that the ones ignoble in character
the forgetful (and) blind
do not sacrifice their lives on their Beloved ...4
True is the love of the moth
the didar of the Lord can be done this way
true is the love of the moth
it sacrifices itself with joy and zeal over and over again
(look) how many moths sacrifice themselves over
just a single lamp ...5
I have sacrificed everything for the Beloved One (Lord)
we must offer the best of our possessions
to the Beloved One (Lord)
Please get me out of this ill-fortune
(I beseech) consider my prayers
be kind enough to keep us with You O Lord
please listen to my prayers ...6
The one who is didari will always wish this
(that) he will never leave this Lord to follow anyone else
the one who is a didari will always develop attachment
and will keep increasing in his love (for the Lord)
with everyday that passes
he will always remember the Lord
with full concentration of mind
these are the ones who get the didar of the Lord ...7
Please do not treat your orphan maid servant like this
(by keeping away from her)
If I have shortcomings please overlook them
I am your sinful maid servant
how come You do not worry about me?
I beeseech You to overlook my shortcomings O Lord
please do pay heed to my prayers ...8
We are nothing on our own we are called your maid servants
our Lord admires this (state) when one gets rid of one's ego
Such is the maid servant (of the Lord)
everyday his love for the Lord multiplies
he remembers the Lord with full concentration of mind
this is how one must sacrifice oneself ...9
We must keep ourselves to our Lord single mindedly
and enjoy that state with love
we must keep ourselves to our Lord single mindedly
and increase our love (for Him)
one who is able to sacrifice one's head for (His love)
he is the one who attains the didar of the Beloved One
(the Lord) ...10
There is nothing better than bond of love
do whatever pleases the Lord (for His love)
those who died out of such love for the Lord
such have died well
do good deeds and the Lord will give you salvation ...11
O Lord I am your sinful slave
please consider my worship for You
My Lord consider it to be joyful O friends
with the mercy of the Lord says Sayyed Khan
all our difficulties are vanquished ...12
