the love religion


the Lord of the two worlds,
worship is sweet on my lips
all creation springs forth
within the witness of your presence.
every word is your praise and eulogy
within presence in passion and harmony.

All begins with your heart,
all blessings end within your presence.
praise is just a manifestation
you are Allah of transcendent wisdom.

Allah huu Allah huu
Allah huu Allah huu

Sufi mystic chants.

The time when there was neither land nor the world
nor moon, sun or the sky,
when truth was not known,
there was nothing beyond you.

When the prophet ascended to heaven
no veil between master and servant.
angels cry secretly to the Prophet
only the truth exists.

why did the son of Haider drink the cup of annihilation?
why did Tabrez agree to be martyred?
what did Mansoor say on the gallows?
all these paths yet you remained the same.

no argument for the master of all
an entire world pines for you.
splendor is manifest everywhere
No one can be associated,
you are the master of the world.

each creation reflects your glory
all creations chant your name.,

The beauty of your essence is perfect
you are the master of essence,
and are without decline.

the one who glows
a new radiance every moment
which perplexes yearning eyes.
sing praise of creation
the leaves of omnipotence.

O! the unique one
imagination and inquisitiveness,
a wish
a light
the voice of heart
you were there,
you are there
and you are always here.

this is my poor attempt at a version of the chant.
