Chint khattola waan dukh

Chint khattola waan dukh birah vichavan lef
Eh hamara jeevna tu saahab sache vekh

English Translation

Fareed, anxiety is my bed, pain is my mattress, and the pain of separation is my blanket and quilt. Behold, this is my life, O my True Lord and Master.

Translation: S. S. Khalsa
