Calling out for Ranjha for so long, I've myself become Ranjha |

O call me you all "Dhido-Ranjha,"; let no one call me Heer |
| Jis de naal main neho lagaya usse wargi hoyi |

The battlefield lies within the vast heart of Ranjha |
| Te jedi mast howe oh heer hundi |
And the one who becomes intoxicated in love, she is Heer |

She is mocked and called one without a spiritual guide |
| Kasam rab di jedi be peer hundi |
By God’s oath, the one without a guide |

Meets destruction of the heart in the end |

Blessed is the one accepted by the beloved’s gaze |

She becomes devoted and clings firmly to him |

These connections are from time eternal, |
| Ek ranjha mainu lorida |
I desire only one—Ranjha |

Why then should we fear the world? |

When he speaks, even sobriety becomes helpless |
| Kaali poori mohde payi phire jehda |
Even wrapped in dark clothes, he radiates divinity |
| Ranjha te mera rab warga |
Ranjha is like my God |
| Ae rafeeq bele churi da te pajj si |
Heer taking churi(food) to Ranjha was an excuse to meet
|
| Darshan ranjhne da heer layi hajj si |
For Heer, seeing Ranjha was pilgrimage itself |
| Peya ranjhne da sawab naal gerra |
Ranjha’s presence surrounded her with divine reward |
