The sweetness of Baba Farid
The bitter waters of worldly life
Became sweet with the sugar called Ganj-e-Shakar
The bitter taste of worldly talk
Became sweet by chanting your name
The toxic environment of the materialistic world
Turned into sweet scent of God's grace near Baba Farid
The hatred existing in the materialistic world
Metamorphoses into sweet love near Baba Farid
In the materialistic world there was much pride
At your majestic durbar everyone bowed and became humble
The essence of the materialistic world is illusion
Your sweet essence is for one and all emancipation
The world is full of bigots who do not remember Ali
You remember in every breath and are the supreme Wali
The materialistic world remembers only the sinful
Guru Arjan Dev the embodiment of love remembered your form beautiful
The materialistic world is full of trouble and pain
In this I turn to you for the balm of blissful rain
