Lyrics and translation Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan - Baba Farid Sohna




Baba Farid Sohna
Baba Farid Sohna
Ganj shakar baba mera sab toh sohna tahiyon neho ehde sang laya
My Ganj Shakar baba, everything looks so beautiful to me that I have not brought anything with me
Mangteyan de mere baba ne hai sohna karam kamaaya
My begging baba has earned a beautiful karma
Ohde lutf o karam to jaawan sadke har ik nu seene laaya
I will gladly sacrifice myself for his kindness and mercy that has touched every heart
Main sadke baba ganj shakar ton mainu fareedi rang chadaaya
I sacrifice myself for baba ganj shakar who has painted me with the Farid's color
Ik ik harf ganj shakar de naa da sanu disda waang quran e
My Ganj Shakar's every word seems to me like the word of the Quran
Dil vich har dum yaad baba di sada eho vird imaan e
I remember my baba in my heart every moment, this is my faith and belief
Takdeyan rehna ganj e shakar di soorat e sab alma di jaan e
The appearance of my ganj e shakar is like the life of everybody's soul
Aadib sada deen ki puchda sada baba deen imaan e
The scholars of our religion ask about my baba's religion and faith
Saiyo mera baba fareed sohna
My baba Fareed is so beautiful
Lar lageyan di laj paalda
He protects the honor of the helpless
Koi wali nahi ehde naal da
There is no saint like him
Baba hai lajpaal mureedan da vich qabr de aan abdaad kare
My baba is the protector of his disciples and fulfills their wishes even in his grave
Ohnu rabb barbaad vi nahi karda jehnu ganj e shakar aabad kare
The God himself will not destroy anyone whom ganj e shakar protects
Ishq baba vich badnaam hoyiyan mainu eh badnaami changi e
My love for baba has made me infamous, but this infamy is good for me
Duniya de taaj takht naalon baba di ghulami changi e
The slavery of my baba is better than the crown and throne of the world
Apne dukh te gham sunaun layi
I have come to tell you about my pain and sorrows
Log haazar aaye aaunde
Thousands of people come and have been coming
Waqt de wali te baadshah
The saints and kings of their time
Ethe haaziri paunde
They also pay homage here
Jo vi mangiye ethon milda
Whatever you wish for, you will get here
Rog nahi rehnda koi dil da
There will be no disease of the heart
Baba sab gham taalda
Baba will solve all your problems
Saiyo mera baba fareed sohna
My baba Fareed is so beautiful
Lar lageyan di laj paalda
He protects the honor of the helpless
Paak pattan da shaenshah
The king of Paak Pattan
Dubiyan bediyan taare
The stars and planets are under his command
Jholiyan ne bhar ke jaawande
He fills the bags of the needy
Dukh dardan de maare
Who are suffering from pains and sorrows
Main nahi kehnda saare kehnde
I am not the only one who says this
Ethe aake dukh nahi rehnde
No one who comes here remains unhappy
Howe kalp kamaal da
He fulfills your every desire
Saiyo mera baba fareed sohna
My baba Fareed is so beautiful
Lar lageyan di laj paalda
He protects the honor of the helpless
Saabiri nizami aaye ne
Saabiri Nizami came here
Karan ghulami aaye ne
He became a slave out of love
Baadshah bhi bann ke
He was a king himself
Ajj gada den salaami aaye ne
Today he came to pay homage with a beggar's bowl
Mannat mann ke bigdi bana de
He fulfills the wishes of the people who come here
Har koi aake har hard sunaake
Everybody comes here to tell their stories
Koi mul nahi ehde bhaar da
He does not care about the burden
Saiyo mera baba fareed sohna
My baba Fareed is so beautiful
Lar lageyan di laj paalda
He protects the honor of the helpless
