Song Meaning of “Sokhi” by Mustafa
Sokhi is a heartfelt melody that speaks of being in love, almost to the point of obsession. It is the true expression of blissful devotion. Through its mesmerizing rhythm, the song speaks of the unwavering faith that love can invoke in one’s heart.
The words speak of the joy of surrendering to the beauty of love and appreciating what it can give. “Sokhi bhabiye” means “the beloved” and could be used to refer to either a person or God.
The song culminates in the lyric “kabir koi maula mile, hum jaane ulfat ka maza” which translates to “only when a divine Guru appears, can we taste the true bliss of love”. This is almost a reminder to cherish and enjoy the love that we receive in life, accepting it as a precious gift.
Sokhi is ultimately about discovering and exploring love’s beauty, and striving to reach the ultimate goal of complete union with the divine.
