Lyrics:

Dam mast Qalandar mast mast
The drunk Qalandar,* in his drunken state**
Iko vird hai dam dam Ali Ali
(Has) Only one chant – Ali, in every breath
Sakhi Lal Qalandar mast mast
The generous red-robed Qalandar, in his drunken state (a reference to the 12th century sufi saint Lal Shahbaz Qalandar)
Jhoole Lal Qalandar mast mast
(Another reference to Lal Shahbaz Qalandar)
Rab ne kinne shaan banaye
God has blessed countless (people)
Be karma Te karm kamaye
He has even blessed the wretched
Jeda vi Tere dar Te Aaye
Whoever comes to your doorstep
O na kaddivi khaali jaye
Never returns empty-handed

Shana uchiyaan teria Peera
O teacher (referring to Ali) with lofty grace
Hovan door haneriyaan Peera
May the darkness (within me) be purged, O teacher
Aasan he ba teriya Peera
I have pinned my (very many) hopes in you, O teacher
Soon arzaa aj meeriya Peera
Grant my requests today, O teacher
Akhi ja malanga tu Ali Ali Ali akhi ja malanga
O my brother, keep saying Ali, Ali, Ali; keep on saying
Akhi ja malanga sach ape mun len ge
O my brother, Go on saying, they will (themselves) accept the truth
Aj ne te kal saray Ali Ali can ge
If not today then tomorrow everyone will repeat Ali, Ali
