Abyat-e-Bahoo


Translation

Eyes cry blood at night and in daytime sorrow of grief Hoo

By reciting monotheism entered in being cannot sleep a moments brief Hoo

Placed the head upon crucifixion this is the secret of love’s belief Hoo

Get slaughtered straight away ‘Bahoo’ will leave drop of grief Hoo

Commentary by M. A. Khan

During the night, one cries tears of blood and during the day, one suffers grief because of beloved. When seeker have recited creed of oneness, its influence entered in his inner being and annihilated him in divine essence. With such love, he is being restless and therefore unable to sleep. Ardent lover of Allah place their heads upon crucifixion like Mansoor Hallaj for the price of Divine ardent love. On the path of Gnostics one faces all kinds of tests.
