Ranjha – रांझा
तैनु मुकल समझ क़ुरान लिया
तेरे दर नु काबा जान लिया
रब बख़शे ना बख़शे ओदी रज़ा
असी यार नु सजदा कर बैठी
**
रांझा रांझा करदी हुवा
मैं आपे रांझा होवी
सद्दो मैनूं ढीडो रांझा
हीर ना आंखों कोई
तख़्त हज़ारा ले चल बुलिया
सियाली मैली ना धोई

रांझा रांझा करदी हुवा
मैं आपे रांझा होवी

Ranjha – The Main poem
Translated by Dr. Rakhshanda Jalil
Ranjha, Ranjha I kept calling
Till I became Ranjha myself
So call me Dhido Ranjha.
Let no one call me Heer
Take me to Takht Hazara, O Buliya*,
The village where Ranjha was born
The deep stains of winter have not been washed
*Buliya refers to Bulle Shah
