Dhan Dhan Aajno Daadd Lore - Translation B

EJI DHAN DHAN AAJNO DAADALO

It is a happy and holy day today for we have found Mowla Ali

The sins of the last four joogs have now been redeemed.

Rejoice in this happy gathering for you have Imam with you

This gathering of the hearts has brought you Baar Gur (Pir Sadardeen)

Leave all the deceitful world behind you

Nay, submit this fraudulent world to your Lord

And strive to do good deeds despite your worldly attachments

..1

In the mountains of Alamut, there is a place called 'Daylum'

Our Imam is born there in human form ..2

The mountains are high and the precipice is deep

(Yet) I climb there and wait for my enlightened Guru ..3

Just as the tall trees are unappealing when bare

So are people without knowledge of the Lord ..4

My Lord has come to us without any restraint

And He has sat amongst the Jamat (to guide us) ..5

I saw my Lord in Shamie Bazaar (dark area ie. 'Saamaldweep',

or the Bazaar in front of Sham-Syria) bazaar

Sitting on a golden throne ..6

(Prepare for the wedding) momins, prepare the 'mandup' (wedding hall) Prepare the feast and shower the pearls on your Lord

For He has come to marry (redeem) Pruthvi (world) ..7

Pir Sadardeen teaches that he is a trader

So momins come and trade with me

The unenlightened (lower beings) will not know how to trade

with me. ..8
