You alone exist...

"You alone exist; I do not, O Beloved!
You alone exist, I do not!

Like the shadow of a house in ruins,
I revolve in my own mind.

If I speak, you speak with me:
If I am silent, you are in my mind.

If I sleep, you sleep with me:
If I walk, you are along my path.

Oh Bulleh, the spouse has come to my house:
My life is a sacrifice unto Him.

You alone exist; I do not, O Beloved!"
