I am not,Yet, I am

आशिक ए बे खबर मनम,
मन न मनम, न मन मनम,
आरिफ ए बा हुनर मनम,
मन न मनम, न मन मनम,

I am in Love, lost to the world
I am not, Yet, I am,
Realized as a soul I am,
I am not, Yet, I am

सोजे दिल ओ जिगर मनम,
वेहशत ए पर्दादार मनम,
दानिश ए बखिया गर मनम,
मन न मनम, न मन मनम

A flame in love, I am,
Restless in solitude, I am,
The all knowing healer,
I am not,Yet, I am.

हुस्न ओ जमाल ए हक मनम,
इज्ज़ ओ जलाल ए हक मनम,
हशमत ओ जाह ओ फार मनम,
मन न मनम, न मन मनम

The beauty of Truth;
Its magnanimity, I am
I am its grandeur, It's splendor
I am not,Yet, I am

सूफी ए बा सफा मनम,
बे खुद ओ बा खुदा मनम,
अहल ए दिल ओ नज़र मनम,
मन न मनम, न मन मनम

The purest of the pure,
I am with him, Yet without him I am,
The heart and vision,
I am not,Yet, I am

इसा ए मरयामी मनम
अहमद ए हाशमी मनम,
हैदर ए शेर ए नर मनम,
मन न मनम, न मन मनम,

Mary's Christ, I am,
I am, Ahmad of Hashim,
I am of Ali the bravest of the brave,
I am not,Yet, I am

राज़ ओ `नियाज़' ए खुद मनम,
सोज़ ओ गुदाज़ ए खुद मनम,
करदा क़दम बे सर मनम,
मन न मनम, न मन मनम

The keeper of inner secrets,I am,
I am, the reflection of my anguish
He who moves on his head,
I am not,Yet, I am
~हज़रत शाह नियाज़ (र. हे)
