So what if love's idol is hidden? One's heart will never be far away
by Sultan BahuEnglish version by Jamal Elias
Original Language Punjabi
So what if love's idol is hidden? One's heart will never be far away.
My guide lives many mountains away, but he is visible before me.
Whoever has one grain of love is drunk without wine.
They are true mystics, Bahu, whose graves are alive.
