Never abandons ardent love neither he turns his face even if hundred swords kill him Hoo

Whichever direction he sees beloved’s secret reaches such side he chose Hoo    

True ardent love is of Hussain Ali ra ‘Bahoo’ surrenders his head and secret does not expose Hoo

Commentary by M. A. Khan

The genuine ardent lover is he who submits his head to be sacrificed by his beloved (Allah Almighty). He would not turn away from his beloved even if he faces arduous obstructions such as many swords cut him up he would not refrain from the path of ardent love. Where ever he observes the secret of his beloved he would turn towards even he has to face any form of hardship or calamity. The true ardent love was that of Hazrat Imam Hussain son of Hazrat Ali Allah be pleased with them who had his entire family sacrificed but never exposed the secret or used any spiritual power that was bestowed by Allah Almighty had surrendered their will in the will of Allah Almighty.
