Abyat-e-Bahoo


Translation

Ardent love seen us vulnerable and sits firmly within me Hoo

It raided my heart and made the task awkward for me Hoo

Saw beloved alone when I glanced inside me Hoo

Without unanimity with perfect master, ‘Bahoo’ satisfaction could not be with thee Hoo

Commentary by M. A. Khan

Ardent love has seen me weak and settled in me firmly. It had further behaved strangely by raiding my heart. When I glanced within my heart I saw my beloved alone. One has to clear ones heart from all forms of vestiges before one could view the manifestation of Allah Almighty reflecting in it. This form of clarity can only be attained with harmony and the guidance of a perfect spiritual master any kind of struggle will be worthless and the state of satisfaction cannot be achieved.
