Lyrics and translation Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan - Baba Farid Sohna

Baba Farid Sohna

Ganj shakar baba mera sab toh sohna tahiyon neho ehde sang laya
Mangteyan de mere baba ne hai sohna karam kamaaya
Ohde lutf o karam to jaawan sadke har ik nu seene laaya
Main sadke baba ganj shakar ton mainu fareedi rang chadaaya

Ik ik harf ganj shakar de naa da sanu disda waang quran e
Dil vich har dum yaad baba di sada eho vird imaan e

Takdeyan rehna ganj e shakar di soorat e sab alma di jaan e
Aadib sada deen ki puchda sada baba deen imaan e

Saiyo mera baba fareed sohna
Lar lageyan di laj paalda
Koi wali nahi ehde naal da

Baba hai lajpaal mureedan da vich qabr de aan abdaad kare
Ohnu rabb barbaad vi nahi karda jehnu ganj e shakar aabad kare

Ishq baba vich badnaam hoyiyan mainu eh badnaami changi e
Duniya de taaj takht naalon baba di ghulami changi e

Apne dukh te gham sunaun layi
Log haazar aaye aaunde
Waqt de wali te baadshah
Ethe haaziri paunde
Jo vi mangiye ethon milda
Rog nahi rehnda koi dil da
Baba sab gham taalda
Saiyo mera baba fareed sohna
Lar lageyan di laj paalda

Paak pattan da shaenshah
Dubiyan bediyan taare
Jholiyan ne bhar ke jaawande
Dukh dardan de maare
Main nahi kehnda saare kehnde
Ethe aake dukh nahi rehnde
Howe kalp kamaal da
Saiyo mera baba fareed sohna
Lar lageyan di laj paalda
Saabiri nizami aaye ne
Karan ghulami aaye ne
Baadshah bhi bann ke
Ajj gada den salaami aaye ne
Mannat mann ke bigdi bana de
Har koi aake har hard sunaake
Koi mul nahi ehde bhaar da
Saiyo mera baba fareed sohna
Lar lageyan di laj paalda

Baba Farid Sohna

My Ganj Shakar baba, everything looks so beautiful to me that I have not brought anything with me
My begging baba has earned a beautiful karma
I will gladly sacrifice myself for his kindness and mercy that has touched every heart
I sacrifice myself for baba ganj shakar who has painted me with the Farid's color

My Ganj Shakar's every word seems to me like the word of the Quran
I remember my baba in my heart every moment, this is my faith and belief

The appearance of my ganj e shakar is like the life of everybody's soul
The scholars of our religion ask about my baba's religion and faith

My baba Fareed is so beautiful
He protects the honor of the helpless
There is no saint like him

My baba is the protector of his disciples and fulfills their wishes even in his grave
The God himself will not destroy anyone whom ganj e shakar protects

My love for baba has made me infamous, but this infamy is good for me
The slavery of my baba is better than the crown and throne of the world

I have come to tell you about my pain and sorrows
Thousands of people come and have been coming
The saints and kings of their time
They also pay homage here
Whatever you wish for, you will get here
There will be no disease of the heart
Baba will solve all your problems
My baba Fareed is so beautiful
He protects the honor of the helpless

The king of Paak Pattan
The stars and planets are under his command
He fills the bags of the needy
Who are suffering from pains and sorrows
I am not the only one who says this
No one who comes here remains unhappy
He fulfills your every desire
My baba Fareed is so beautiful
He protects the honor of the helpless
Saabiri Nizami came here
He became a slave out of love
He was a king himself
Today he came to pay homage with a beggar's bowl
He fulfills the wishes of the people who come here
Everybody comes here to tell their stories
He does not care about the burden
My baba Fareed is so beautiful
He protects the honor of the helpless
