As an erudite author and poet, <em>Barelv</em><em>ī</em> is not so simple for a common reader to grasp the meaning from his words and phrases. So different interpreters in different eras have endeavored to reveal the message and meaning from his works. This study identifies and critically examines thirteen interpreters’ works on <em>“</em><em>Ḥadāʻiq-i-Bakhshish”.</em> <em>Muft</em><em>ī Ghulām Yāseen Rāz Amjadī, Mirzā Amjad Rāzī, Hāfiz Zakā Ullāh Saeedī </em>and <em>Mawl</em><em>ānā ʻĀasī Karnālī </em>have been found the best interpreters. The interpretations of <em>Sufi Muhammad Awwal and Mawl</em><em>ānā Ghulām Ḥassan Qādrī </em>are although original in nature yet on various points they could not have dealt with the text as it demanded. Interpretations of<em> Muft</em><em>ī Faiz Ahmed Awaisī, Mawlānā Ghulām Ḥassan Qādrī, Muhammad Arif Mehmood Khān Qādrī, Sufi Muhammad Abdul Sattār Tāhir Masoodī, Muftī Muhammad Khān </em>and<em> Naeem Ull</em><em>āh Qādrī </em>have influence of the work of earlier interpreters. This research also points out differences and similarities found in the meanings, paraphrasing, explanations and interpretations of pertinent devotional poetic verses discussed by the referred interpreters<em>.</em></p> ER -
