BAYT (COUPLET)

Take the inscription (Naqsh) as the means of approach to the inscriber (Naqaash)

Afterwards certainly the inscription and inscriber unite. 

From where does the Yaqeen (Certainty) originate?  It originates from the Hazraat of the Visualization of the Name Allah the Essence.  It should be noted and if you will know [with Yaqeen (Certainty)] then the Wahdaniyat of Allah is hidden in your body as kernel is in the shell of pistachio.  The Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide) takes the Seeker of Allah in Hazoor (Attendance) of Allah within a flash and makes him honored with Didaar that he never disassociates from Allah any time in both the Aalim e Hayaat and Aalim e Mamaat.  And the Naqis Murshid (Imperfect Guide) takes to the Hazoori of Allah in a day and night and the Most Naqis Murshid (Imperfect Guide) [Adna (of lower rank)] links the Seeker with Allah Almighty within a week.  This inward course of Faqar Hidayat (Guidance) and the Marifat of Lord is not of telling anecdote enacting fiction or Qeel O Qaal but it is of becoming aware of the everlasting Mushahida (Vision) of the Hazoori of His Highness the Most Exalted One that this Faiz (beneficence) and Fazal (favor)  is only of that Day of Azal.

That person who is Master of insight he does not say that he has any prestige

At this Station body physique and name that is name and figure get erased

Those bodies are unique that are fit for Allah

That eye is unique that is fit for Didaar

When [human being] has gone beyond the four bodies four eyes and four Noors (Lights)

Then he becomes Yakta with Allah

After this he always openly sees [Allah]

And transcends Zikr and Fikr (Thoughtful Recollection) and every Station

O Dear!  Listen [attentively]!  For both the Murshideen (Guides) and the Seekers this one saying is sufficient that that in your left side is your enemy Nafs [] and in your right side the accused Satan in encroaching.  Thus you are in battle against both these two [fierce] enemies.  That person on whose both sides such [strong] enemies are stick like the wounds of arrow or the pain of thorn then what concern he might have with dream or happy hours?  You ought to be alert every time!  What you know that at what instance the messenger of death will bring the message?  The Faqeer ought to always be engaged in the Visualization of the Name Allah the Essence ; till a flame of Tajalli (self disclosure) of Anwaar (Scintillations) emanates from the Name Allah the Essence and Faqeer after drowning in this self disclosure becomes honored with Didaar; neither he may remember the spring of the Eden nor even the Fire of Hell.  I have passed through these both Stations and have turned my face towards Didaar.

HADIS (sayings of the Holy Prophet)

Eimaan (Belief) is between fear and hope.

Which Ilm (knowledge) and mode is for getting the honor of Didaar becoming Waasil (joined) with Haq Almighty and getting Liqa (meeting) of Lord?  That is just the Noori (Photic) Hazoori Ilm of the Mushahida (Vision) of the Qurb (propinquity) of Lord that is beyond this outwardly wisdom intelligence and sensibility.  Every that person can know this Ilm (knowledge) of the Marifat who has directly learnt the lesson from Allah Almighty and this lesson is dearer to us than brother son and life even.

Suggested Meanings:

Didaar: seeing the Sight of Allah. Hazoori: It means ‘attendance at an intangible Station or an unseen gathering that is a Wayfarer after disconnecting with the creation and after fleeing away of the outward world gains cordially spiritually and inwardly the Qurb of Lord Wisaal and Didaar and is present before Allah in said way or he is allowed attendance in the inward and spiritual Court of Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wassallam inwardly or spiritually while sleeping or through Maraqiba.

Egotism (adore for the self) is hard Kufr (Blasphemy).  For what Ilm (knowledge) is?  And for what the scholar is?  Ilm (knowledge) is for the sake of Hidayat (Guidance) and Aalim (Erudite) is for Rawayat.  For what Hidayat (Guidance) is?  And what is Rawayat?  Rawayat that is free of Riya is a Waseela (Resource) of the Marifat of Lord.  And Hidayat (Guidance) eliminates Shirk (Polytheism) Kufr (Blasphemy) Devilish and carnal desires and takes to the Majlis (Court) of Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam.

Thus for everything [there is some] witness and for every witness Millat (nation) and Religion is [a] course.  Thus which is the witness for a Faqeer?  [His witness] is the Marifat of Lord (on one hand) and the Qurb of Hazoori and Mushahida (Vision) of Lord is on the other hand.

ABYAAT (COUPLETS)

Those who have no Murshid (Guide) for the sake of Allah Almighty I am their Murshid (Guide)

And those who have no Pir I am their Pir from the Holy Prophet Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam

I am the Perfect Qadri and I am addressed in the name Bahu Rahmatullah Alaihi

When Bahu Rahmatullah Alaihi became Fana Fi Allah (Destroyed in Allah) then the Hijaab (Veil) raised

Only he deserves to be called a Pir

That grants five treasures to the Seekers in five days

The Aalim (Erudite) and Faazil (learned person) stay under my command

Because I am a companion of the sacred Majlis (Court) of Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam

These Maratib (Ranks) are available to the Qadri by the grace of God

Wish for the Nemul Badal of these from a Qadri

I am the Murshid (Guide) of the Murshideen (Guides) because of Hazoori

The bodies of my Mureedain are the secrets and mysteries of Noor (Light)

I do not find any Seeker competent for Ataa

The Incomplete and Imperfect Seeker is the wrong doer and the enemy of his soul.

Suggested Meanings:

Rawayat: narrating informing and quoting. Riya: hypocrisy and duplicity. Pir: the Spiritual Guide who Initiates Seekers on his hand and makes them his Mureed. Hazoori: It means ‘attendance at an intangible Station or an unseen gathering that is a Wayfarer after disconnecting with the creation and after fleeing away of the outward world gains cordially spiritually and inwardly the Qurb of Lord Wisaal and Didaar and is present before Allah in said way or he is allowed attendance in the inward and spiritual Court of Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wassallam inwardly or spiritually while sleeping or through Maraqiba. Mureedain: the disciples who have been Initiated on hand by the Pir. Ataa (grant): donation. Nemul Badal: the new ranks and positions that are received as reward.
