(Poem 3 of 12)
kehRi kehRi karaN sifat Illahi di?

jehra duniyaN da wali,
laa ke sohna baagh maali,
kitay deway na vikhaali,
mere jihay be-hosh nu.....
sau sau vaari niyoN ke salaam oouss nu....


heThaN thamm na khalleyaare,
ki akaash nu sahaare?,
vekh ke hairan saare,
kudrat Mahi di.....
kehRi kehRi karaN sifaT Illahi di?

chand, suraj, chiraag,
layea taareyaN ne baagh,
khaa je chakkar dimaagh,
ki aqal varti?
kiss bidh paani te tikayee dharti?

lo garam wagay phair,
kiton chaRh aunda (ha)neir,
jiss veilay ho je mehar,
sachi paatshaahi di...
kehRi-KehRi karaN sifat Illaahi di?

kitay jhaaRh naal jhaaRh,
kitay jungle pahaaRh,
kitay dharti nu paaRh,
ke wagaiyeaN nadiyaN....
wagdiyan nu challiyaN guzar sadiyaN....

hare rukh phull boor,
meway naal bharpoor,
chhaaweiN behke ho je door,
takleef raahi di...
kehRi-kehRi....


insaan be-yakeenaN,
kitay Tikaay naN Tikeena,
layeaN paiT ch masheena,
dudh banay ratt da....
kaun andaaza laawe teri matt da...

keho keho je sareer,
kitay Sohni kitay Heer,
teri jaisee tasveer,
naaN kisay toN lahi di...
kehRi-kehRi....

jagg rangla banaa taa,
jo shai mangay rooh rajaa taa,
tooN haiN daateyaN da daata,
de ke pachhtaunda ni....
teri meharbaani da ant aunda ni?...

maaN te baap, putt dhee di,
choag mukkdi nahi jehdi,
phaRhi jaanday di na dehdi,
shakal sipaahi di...
kehRi....

lai ke aawe yaaN manosh,
te Tikaane aawe hosh,
hoje chaare paasay rosh'ni andera chakk de....
khull jaan doweiN netar paTakk de.....

koi lagda na pata,
changoo dass wazaah-kataa,
Rajab Ali KhaN di khataa,
bakhash gunaahi di....
kehRi kehRi karaN sifat Illaahi di....
