Joban jaande na daran

Joban jaande na daran je shau preet na jaai
Kitti joban preet bin suk gaye kamlaai

Reference: Kalam Baba Farid, Dr Nazir Ahmad; Packages Limited; Page 29
English Translation

I am not afraid of losing my youth, as long as I do not lose the Love of my Husband Lord. Fareed, so many youths, without His Love, have dried up and withered away.

Translation: S. S. Khalsa
