Great Bulley Shah

Parh parh ilm hazaar kitaaban
kadhi apne aap nu parheya nayi
jaan jaan warhday mandir maseedi
kadhi mann apne wich warheya nayi
avain larda aye shaitan de naal bandeyaa
kadhi nafss apne naal lareya nayi


Translation:

[yes, yes, you have read thousands of books
but you have never tried to read your own self
you rush in, into your Mandirs, into your Mosques
but you have never tried to enter your own heart
futile are all your battles with Satan
for you have never tried to fight your own desires]
