The late singer of sufi poetry Inayat Hussain Bhatti appears and sings a rubai of Hz Sayyid Mehr Ali Shah (ra). Although it is a short video you still get to see the tomb, mosque and guesthouse of the khaneqah of Golra sharif. The rubai that Inayat Bhatti sings is in Potohari which was Hazrat’s mother tongue and means:
Be! and it is (act of creation) is matter of yesterday (ie of the near past)
our love ( for God) began long before that
there was neither I nor you, no word nor symbol
when the M (ie The Prophet Muhammad, PBUH) bore witness
O Mehr Ali Shah, they (Creator and creation) only sat together
when they both felt the pangs of Love.
