Pir Vilayat Khan

O good friend, O divine friend,

O friend universal,

O hero-lover, O oneness-love,

Pir Vilayat, Pir!

With your sleepless heart you desire to wipe

The streaming tears of the world.

Within, without an unparalleled beauty-smile,

Along with the soul-stirring

Transformation-Flute of Lord Krishna.

With you and in you

Heaven's wonder-grandeur,

Earth's wonder-splendour,

Eternity's movement and stillness.
