Baba Bulleh Shah's Poetry.
Dedicated to the poetry of 17th century Punjabi, Sufi Saint Baba Bulleh Shah who taught a message of love and harmony between people irrespective of their caste, race, colour, creed or gender.
The aims include preservation of Baba Bulleh Shah's poetry through translation and to introduce it to a new generation of Punjabi speakers who may not be able to read or understand Punjabi. Secondly, to introduce Baba Bulleh Shah's philosophy of peace and harmony to a new western audience.
The focus will be on translation of Baba Bulleh Shah's poetry, together with original Shahmukhi and Gurmukhi texts and transliteration for those unfamiliar with the Punjabi language.
As the Punjabi language has evolved, the meaning of words and descriptions used by baba Bulleh Shah in his poetry are now not always fully understood even by Punjabi speakers. In this website, I will endeavour to explain his poems and their contexts.
