(Bal-e-Jibril-145) Rooh-e-Arzi Adam Ka Istaqbal Karti Hai

Rooh-e-Arzi Adam Ka Istaqbal Karti Hai
Adam Is Received By The Spirit Of The Earth

Khol Ankh, Zameen Dekh, Falak Dekh, Faza Dekh
Mashriq Se Ubharte Huwe Suraj Ko Zara Dekh

Open your eyes and look above,
Look at the streak of dawn;

Iss Jalwa-e-Beparda Ko Pardon Mein Chupa Dekh
Ayyam-e-Judai Ke Sitam Dekh, Jafa Dekh

Look at the veiling of the vision;
Look at the banishment unfair;

Betab Na Ho Maarika-e-Beem-o-Rija Dekh!

Look at the battle of hope and fear.

Hain Tere Tassaruf Mein Ye Badal, Ye Ghataen
Ye Gunbad-e-Aflak, Ye Khamosh Fazaen

Yours are the clouds, the rains, the skies,
Yours are the winds, the storms,

Ye Koh Ye Sehra, Ye Sumandar Ye Hawaen
Theen Paish-e-Nazar Kal To Farishton Ki Adaen

The woods, the mountains, the rivers are yours;
The world of the angels was a void;

Aaeena-e-Ayyam Mein Aaj Apni Ada Dekh!

Look at the peopled earth, which is yours.

Samjhe Ga Zamana Teri Ankhon Ke Ishare
Dekhain Ge Tujhe Door Se Gardoon Ke Sitare

You wilt rule it like a king;
The stars will gaze in wonder;

Na-Paid Tere Behar-e-Takhiyyul Ke Kinare
Pohanche Ge Falak Tak Teri Aahon Ke Shirare

Your vision will encompass the earth;
Your sighs will reach the heavens;

Tameer-e-Khudi Kar, Asar-e-Aah-e-Rasa Dekh!

Look at the power of your pain and passion.

Khurshid-e-Jahan Taab Ki Zou Tere Sharar Mein
Abad Hai Ek Taza Jahan Tere Hunar Mein

The spark in you is a radiant sun;
A new world lives in you;

Jachte Nahin Bakhshe Huwe Firdous Nazar Mein
Jannat Teri Pinhan Hai Tere Khoon-e-Jigar Mein

You care not for a borrowed heaven;
Your life‐blood has it concealed;

Ae Paikar-e-Gil Koshish-e-Peham Ki Jaza Dekh!

Look at the reward of anguish and toil.

Nalinda Tere Uood Ka Har Taar Azal Se
Tu Jinse-e-Mohabbat Ka Khireedar Azal Se

Your lyre has an eternal plaintive string,
Panting with the passion of love;

Tu Peer-e-Sanam Khana-e-Asrar Azal Se
Mehnat Kash-o-Khoon Raiz-o-Kam Azaar Azal Se

You guard eternal secrets divine,
And live a life of obedient power;

Hai Rakab-e-Taqdeer-e-Jahan Teri Raza, Dekh!

Look at the world as shaped by your will.
