Bulla! I know not who I am <br /> <br />Nor am I a believer of the mosque, <br />Nor am I in rituals of the infidel <br />Nor am I the pure inside the impure. <br /> <br />Nor am I inherent in the vedas, <br />Nor am I present in intoxicants. <br />Nor am I lost nor the corrupt. <br /> <br />Nor am I union, nor grief, <br />Nor am I intrinsic in the pure/impure <br />Nor am I of water, nor of land. <br /> <br />Nor am I fire nor air. <br />Bulla! I know not who I am <br /> <br />Nor am I Arabic, nor from Lahore, <br />Nor am I the Indian city of Nagour. <br />Nor hindu or a turk from Peshawar. <br /> <br />Nor did I create differences of faith, <br />Nor did I create Adam and Eve <br />Nor did I name my self. <br /> <br />Beginning or end, I just know the self, <br />Do not acknowledge duality. <br />There's none wise than I. <br /> <br />Who is this Bulla shah <br />Bulla! I know not who I am. <br /> <br />Nor am I moses, nor Pharoah <br />Nor am I fire nor wind. <br />I do not stay in Nadaun city. (City of innocents) <br />Bullashah, who is this man standing? <br /> <br />Bulla! I know not who I am <br />Bulla! I know not who I am.<br /><br />Bulleh Shah<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bulla-i-know-not-who-i-am/
