Madho Lal Qalandar Poem by Sumita Jetley

O Madho, Eternal Beloved,
You who dwell beyond the bounds of time,
The red flame of love burns in our hearts,
Unfurling like the mystic's dance under the boundless sky.

Ya Qalandar, the Whirling Spirit,
Scatter the seeds of your mercy across the universe,
Let every grain of sand, every blade of grass,
Sing your praises, intoxicated by your divine love.

Let the rivers flow with your boundless grace,
Quenching the thirst of seekers far and wide.
Let the winds carry your whispers to every corner,
Drawing all hearts to your eternal embrace.

O Lal of Sehwan,
Teach us to rise above the walls of creed and name,
To whirl in the ecstasy of unity,
Bound to none but your endless love.

Illuminate the darkness of ignorance with your flame,
Guide the lost with the light of your truth.
For in your fire, there is no burning,
Only the melting of illusions, the union of all.

Let our hearts echo with the cry of 'Dama Dam Mast Qalandar! '
So that every breath becomes a prayer,
Every step becomes a dance of devotion,
And every soul becomes a mirror of your eternal light.

O Beloved, the crimson robe of your love wraps us all,
Bless this universe with the madness of love,
The kind that shatters all barriers,
And leaves us drowning in the sea of your oneness.

Madho Husseini, Shahbaz Qalandar,
May we forever remain drunk on your beauty,
Lost in your mystery, found in your grace.
Ameen.
