baandhi te bardi o yaar

eid sayid shaheed cha kitam
kayi gujdi ramz chalaayi
eid ohna jehna deed sajjan di
bina deedon eid na kaayi
yaar fareed lakh eid manaasan
jadon vichde milsan maahi

aa ve maahi tai ko allah ghin lehyaawe
hoyiyaan muddatan bahuti ghanniyaan
hijr tede vich ankhiyan barsan
jivein mi saawan diyan kanniyaan
ehna ankhiyan ne rona os din sikheya
jadon waakif tediyan banniyan
yaar fareed rona ohdon muksi
jadon hon kafan diyan tanniyan

baandhi te bardi o yaar tain dilbar di o yaar
jaane maahi o mehaz na jaane o yaar

faalan paawan te peer manaawan o yaar
je tun aavein te sadke main jaawan o yaar

naam tere da main vird pakaawan o yaar
o jind payi sikdi aahi taindre bhane o yaar

tain bin sunjhiyan dissan gulzaaran o yaar
hijr tere vich aahi main maaran o yaar

je tu aavein te aaun bahaaran o yaar
jag paya denda hi taindre taane o yaar

ishq kahani be andaaz o yaar
mann vich wajda ishq da saaz o yaar

'Ghulam Fareed' dasse ki raaz o yaar
ethse bhul gaye sugad siyaane o yaar

  1. Looking for lyrics of "Teri yaad ibadaat meri" - no idea who the poet is. Salaam to Nusrat ji.

  2. Your translations are just soooooo good. I love it when the underlying spirit of the song is so well rendered in English.
    I will remain forever grateful to you for "Teri yaad ibadaat".
    Will it be too much to ask for a translation ?

    I will never be able to repay your debt. I can share with you my own translation of Rabindranath Tagore's 9 songs that I have translated myself if you wish and send you YouTube links for the songs. I have grown up listening to them till I paid attention to Nusrat Ji 50 yrs later.
