Persian
بس که ما را هست با تو ارتباط
فرش کردم در قدوم راه تو
بر فقیرانِ خدا رحمی بکن!
دایماً دل را به سوی حق بیار
نیست آسودہ کسی در زیر چرخ
English Translation
Such is our deep connection with You,
In Your pathway, I have spread out,
Have some compassion for the Divine’s faqīrs!
Direct your heart towards the Divine at all times,
No one is at ease under the ever-turning sky,
~~~
Featuring: Damanpreet Singh, Inni Kaur
