BY SAYYED IMAAM SHAH

Worship (serve) the holy water of truth, and do it during the ceremony 
of "Ghatpaat" (Abe-e-safaa). Brothers maintain truth and patience at 
the ceremony of "Ghatpaat".


ejee enne ghatte paamee-e, ane paamee-e aveechal raaj
     aveechal raaj to paamee-e, jo hove ghatt vishvaas............2

With this holy water, you will attain, and indeed attain the everlasting kingdom.
You will attain the everlasting kingdom if you have faith in the holy water.


ejee neermal thaine nur peejee-e, ane neera(n)tar surat raakh
     neemnu(n) fal to paamee-e, jo hove ghatt vishvaas............3

neera(n)tar - continuous    neem - religious vow,rule

With purity drink the Light and maintain continuous concentration
 (upon the Lord). You will attain the fruits of the observance of religious 
vows and discipline if you have faith in the holy water.


ejee ghattpaatt maa(n)he dheeyaan-j raakhee-e 
     ane saache man vishvaas
     enne ghatte stree purush sarave aavshe
     tame neermal raakho neh......................................4

During the "Ghatpaat" ceremony maintain the concentration 
entirely and do it with true heart and conviction. At this ceremony 
women and men will come. Maintain pure love and affection then.


ejee stree purush sarave ba(n)dhavaa, ane ben bhaainu(n) neh
     najar neermal je nahee(n) raakhshe 
     tenee jaashe naragmaa(n) deh.................................5

Regard all the women and men as your relatives, and maintain love 
of a brother and sister with them. The one who does not maintain a
pure vision (sight), his/her body will go to hell.


ejee dojakhe jaashere jeevddaa, jene ghattpaatt nahee(n) veeshvaas
     taare ghattpaattnu(n) dharam sarave jaayshe
     ane dehee jaashe agan-j maa(n)he.............................6

The souls will go to hell, of those who have had no faith in the holy water. 
All the religious benefits accrued as a result of the ceremonies will 
vanish and the body will go into fire completely.


ejee peer shaah kahetaa fal paamee-e, ane farmaan kahetaa daan
     haija(n)daa kahetaa harakh aavshe, kaa-em kahetaa saaheb jaann
                                                      ............7

You will attain the fruits by stating "Peer Shah" (while standing in the queue), 
and by saying "Farmaan" (before drinking abe-e-safaa) you will have given a 
great charity. By saying "Haizindaa"  (before taking "Sukreet") happiness will 
come and by saying "Kaayam Paayaa" the inner understanding of the Imaam will come.


ejee sayyed imaamshaah boleeyaa 
     ane tame evaare fal kaa(n)i gamaavo
     par streethee jo chetsho, to ghatt sughatt hoy jaann.........8

Sayyed Imaamshah has spoken (this "ginaan"). Why do you lose 
such (exalted) fruits. If you are mindful of getting involved in illicit 
relationships, you will have an awareness (of the Lord) in every part of your being.
