Saqi Ki Har Nigah Pay Bal Kha K P Gaya
Lehroon Say Khailta Hoa Lehra K P Gaya
Dancing to every look of the wine-giver, I drank
Playing with the waves, I drank

nusrat_allahhuu.jpg
Ayesha Kaljuvee translates this popular qawali sung by Nusrat Fateh Ali. Allah Huu is in the praise of God, but could also refer to one's ideal self, one's lover and the awe-inspiring beauty of nature.
Malik-Ul-Mulk, Lashareeka Lahoo
Ruler of the world, soul of my blood
Wahadahoo Laa Ilaahaa Illaahoo
The promised one, there is nothing but you
