Aallah Ek Khasam Subukaa - Translation

ALLAAH EK KHASAM SABUKAA
BY PEER HASSAN KABEERDEEN

ejee allaah ek khasam sabukaa, duneeyaa usakee saaree
aveechal naam khudaava(n)d bhanneeye
or sab meetteeyaa keree baajee
illaahee bhed ta(n)tav naam leeje
aapnne jeevdde kee chee(n)taa re momanbhaai keeje
aapne jeevddeku(n) dozakh na deeje..illaahee.................1

Allah is the only Lord of everything, the entire world is His(or under His command).
Understand the name(attribute) of the Lord as being eternal and everlasting and
the rest is all perishable and illusory. Extract(or obtain) the Divine mysteries from
the essence of His name(by constant remembrance and contemplation).
O brother momins, be mindful about the condition of your souls and do not
condemn your souls to hell.

ejee nabee mahamad bujo bhaai, to tame paamo imaam
musharak man to kaafar kaheeye, moman deel kuraan..illaahee..2

Brothers, know Prophet Muhammed, then you will attain the Imaam. Only a kaafir
(infidel) has polytheistic tendencies in his/her mind(heart). But a momin's heart is
enlightened by Holy Qur'aan.

ejee loh kalam neet utth dekhyaa, to ek ku(n) rad-j keeyaa
fome mukar daave paddeeyaa, so lekhaa rada-j keeyaa..illaahee3

fome - recollection, remembrance rad - to cancel
mukar - pagan, not belonging to a religious system

They heard(read) the words from the guarded tablet(scripture) upon rising everyday.
Then they cancelled(ignored) one of them. They expressed their opposition to the
remembrance(of the Lord) and therefore abandoned(cancelled) their earnings
(good fortune) completely.

ejee jumale feerashte sujeedaa keeyaa, aadam sujeedaa leeyaa
ajaajeele farmaan na maanyaa, so lekhaa radaj keeyaa
......illaahee.......4

All the angels prostrated and Adam accepted their prostrations. Azazil did not obey
or follow the Farmaans and therefore annulled all his earnings completely.

ejee addhaar laakh baras kee umaro, usaku(n) khaalak deeyaa
ana(n)t elam ne ana(n)t dolat, so lekhaa radaj keeyaa
....illaahee.........5

The Creator gave him a very long life spanning 1.8 million years and gave him endless
knowledge and countless wealth. These earnings he gave up(by not prostrating).

ejee ajaajeel feerashtaa buzarag kaheeye
ane budheeva(n)t kaheeye tesaa
chhatrees karodd keetaabaa paddeeyaa
pann bheetar bhed na paayaa..............illaahee............6

The angel Azazil is regarded as very honoured and is also considered to be very intelligent.
He read and studied thirty six crore books but did not realise the essence of the interior (soul, heart).

ejee hee(n)du ke ghar bettaa aayaa, huvaa musalmaan
pahelaa naam ibhraaheem bhannaayaa
deen huvaa rahemaan.........................illaahee.........7

A son was born in the house of a Hindu(idol worshipper). He became a Muslim. He was
known at first by the name of Ibhrahim(Prophet Abhraham) and mercy descended upon the days.

ejee aadhaa ga(n)dum bahot amarat, aadam khaayaa etaa
kaneek daanaa aadam khaayaa
teese naa(n)khyaa baheshtathee hetthaa......illaahee.........8

aadhaa - half?? ga(n)dum - wheat etaa - that much
kaneek - ear or spike of corn; granule hetthaa - beneath

Half a grain of wheat was very sweet. Adam ate that much only. He ate a granule and
therefore was placed beneath(away from) the paradise.

ejee us bhedathee a(n)desaa keeyaa, nabee mahamad chetyaa
ek mann ne sher addhaai, tresatth khaayaa etaa
........illaahee.......9

a(n)desaa - anxiety mann - forty seers
sher - weight of 40 or 80 tolas; lion addhaai -

He was overcome with anxiety due to the essence(mysteries) which were forewarned
by Prophet Muhammed. TO BE CLARIFIED LATER

ejee sag poshakee meesak banaai
us maa(n)he bhareeye zamzam kuvekaa paanee
kutaa kabahee paak na hove
jo dhove so paanee.......................illaahee...........10

sag - heap,mass; dog posh - garment meesak - water bag
kutaa -
He made a water bag from the skin of a dog and filled it with water from the well of zamzam.
Dogs will never be pure even if they wash themselves with the water(of zamzam). TO BE CLARIFIED

ejee paak paanee farmaane huvaa, sarovar nadeeyaa jaannee
befarmaanee paak na hove, jo dhove so paanee..illaahee......11

The water(soul) is purified by obedience to the commands(Farmaans). In this way the ocean
(Imaam) knew(came into contact with) the rivers(mureeds). The ones who disobey the
Farmaans will not be purified even if they wash themselves in water.

ejee bhanne sunne ne buje esaa, bhed na jaanne tesaa
vann Kalame jo neemaaz gujaare, seer beenaa dhadd kesaa
........illaahee....12

dhadd - headless trunk, truncated corpse

The ones who learn, hear and know in this manner(without obedience to the Imaam), do not
understand the essence of (whatever they are engaged in). Without authoritative teachings
(kalam) OR without the pronouncement of the 'Shahada', if one performs the ritual prayer
(neemaaz), it (the process) will be like a headless trunk.

ejee kalamaa ku(n)chee mee(n)dar teraa, petth na sage aneraa
kalame beenaa moksh na hove
so kalamaa(n) ku(n)chee teraa............illaahee...........13

ku(n)chee - key mee(n)dar - inside
petth - stomach sage - aneraa - uncommon, different

The Kalimah is the key to your interior. The stomach does not have any relationship
with unfamiliar objects. Without the 'kalimah' there is no freedom and therefore the
Kalimah is your key(to salvation).

ejee shaahalee zulfeekaare duneeyaa samjaayaa
elam je na patee-annaa
savaa laakh jab raajaa maaryaa
mahamad kalamaa keeyaa..................illaahee............14

Shaah Aly Zulfikaar explained to the world but there were those who did not have
conviction in knowledge. When the King slayed one hundred twenty five thousand
of them, Muhammed established the 'kalimah'.

ejee gaafal thaa taaku(n) muneevar keeyaa
haazar shaah deekhlaayaa
shaah dekhee je daave paddeeyaa
so neeshtte dozakhe sadhaareeyaa............illaahee........15

(Muhammed) made believers of those who had become ignorant and had strayed away.
He showed then the present Imaam. Those who having seen the Imaam, turned against
Him, have verily gone to hell.

ejee bhrahmaa veeshnav maheshar bhanneeye
kal maa(n)he veeshnu(n) Imaam
je jeev farmaane chaalyaa
so pahotaa bahesht makaan..............illaahee.............16

Know the Creator, Ruler and the Destroyer(of evil). In the present age Lord Vishnu
is the Imaam. Those souls that have followed the Farmaans, have reached the
abode of paradise.

ejee aal alee islaamshaah raajaa, allaah ehee imaam
peer bhanne sadardeen kahet kabeerdeen
mere momaneku(n) bahesht makaan..........illaahee...........17

Mawlana Islamshaah who is the progeny of Aly is the King. Allah is indeed the Imaam.
This is taught by Peer Sadardeen and is stated (confirmed) by Peer Hassan Kabeerdeen
who says: "My momins will have an abode in paradise" (if they follow the Imaams).
