Qaseedah Burdah Shareef with English Translation – English Translation By Shahid Hamid Gill
Section One
Hadhrat Imaam Saalih Sharaf-ud-Deen Abu Abdullah Muhammad Bin Hasan Al-Busiri has spoken about his love for Rasoolullah A.
He tries to conceal this love and his beloved. This is why we see that He has not described the name of Rasoolullah A directly in the whole section. We observe that he has mentioned the places and things that are near to Madinah so that Rasoolullah A is pleased. His love for
Rasoolullah A has made him uneasy and restless.
1. Are the tears mixed with blood following (from your eyes) due to your remembrance of the neighbor of Dhi-Salam (a place near Madinatul Islam).
2. Or is it because of the breeze blowing from Kaazimah (a place near Madinatul Islam). Or is it the lighting (that has) struck in the darkness of the night Idham (a place near Madinatul Islam).
3. What is the matter with your eyes, (the more) you say to them to stop (the more) they continue to flow. And what has happened to your heart, (the more) you say to it to come to its senses (normal condition, the more) it is distracting (troubled).
4. Does the lover think that his love can be concealed; while he is constantly shedding tears and his heart is (constantly) glowing.
5. If you had not fallen in love, you would not have shed tears at the ruins (of your beloved) nor would you have become restless due to the remembrance of the ban (cypress tree) and High Mountain.
6. So, how can you deny love while your (continuous) shedding tears and (your) illness are (open) witness (of your love).
7. And the deepest love has carved two lines of weakness and (constantly shedding) tears (due to grief and fear) on your cheeks like yellow rose and the reddish tree (hence, your face is withered).
8. Yes! Thoughts of the beloved came to me at night and kept me awake (and made me restless) and (indeed) love alters into pain.
9. You! Who reproach me, regarding my love, excuse me from me to you and if you do justice, you would not reproach me.
10. My state (of love) has reached you, (now) my secret is no longer concealed from those who malign (me), nor there is (something to) check my agony.
11. You (O listener) have sincerely advised me (and) I have not paid any attention to it. Verily, a (true) lover is deaf to those who advise (and criticize him).
12. I regarded the advice of the elders with suspicion in reproaching me. (No doubt,) the wisdom in the advice of the elders is above (any) suspicion.
Section Two
Hadhrat Imaam Saalih Sharaf-ud-Deen Abu Abdullah Muhammad Bin Hasan Al-Busiri described in this section about restraining lust and carnal desires.
In this section he relates that a man indulges into love due to lust and carnal desires and requirements. He also has related that his life is spent in sins. And on this act, he sincerely regrets and asks for forgiveness from Allah Almighty.
On the other hand, healso mentions that lust and carnal desires are also important to fall in the love of Rasoolullah A. Hementions that a pure love can be
attained by the purification of oneself from lust and carnal wishes and desires. This section provokes a man to fall into the love of Rasoolullah A; and it also draws a man to seek forgiveness from Allah Almighty.
1. For verily, my soul (Nafs Ammarah, which) calls me to evil, due to its ignorance, did not pay (any) attention to the advice from the warning by grey hair and old age.
2. And I have not made any preparation for good deeds, a feast for a guest (old age that) has lodged on my head nor did I honour (it).
3. If I had known that I would not (be able to) honour (the guest, the old age) I would have concealed my secret, which is exposed, by dyeing.
