Ginan: Uncha Re – Soul’s yearning for the Vision/Deedar
The venti ginan Uncha Re Kot Bahuvech is set in Raag Sindhoora, traditionally sung during monsoon, this raag has an overall romantic feel. –Aly Sunderji
O Lord! Your abode is at an elevated fort far away, beneath which is an ocean. I am a fish in the ocean. O Lord! Come to save me, for I am restless without your Vision (Darshan).
O my Lover! Come to my home, O my Master! Come to my home. I am your created being who has forgotten the means of your worship. O Lord! Bless me with your Vision. –Karim Maherali
Eji Unchaa re kot bahu vechanaa
Niche vahe dariyaav
Hu(n) re dariyaa-vandi maachhali
Saa(n)hiya taarañ aav
Hu(n) re darshan bina baavari
Baalam ghare aav, saajan ghare aav
Bando bhuliyo taari bandagi
Saa(n)hiya soorat bataav. . ..Hu(n) re..1
–Pir Hasan Kabirdin
