Lalleshwari

1320 – 1392 / Pandrethan, Srinagar, Kashmir / India

O, Mind, How Intoxicated You Are

O, mind, how intoxicated you are
With a foreign brand:
How are you eluded by untruth
for truth?
Listen:
Enthralled you have become
By a foreign creed,
Coming and going, birth and rebirth
Are but a cyclic movement
Of life and death
