Taqdeer
Destiny
Na-Ahl Ko Hasil Hai Kabhi Quwwat-o-Jabroot
Hai Khwar Zamane Meinkabhi Johar-e-Zati
Oft men who donʹt deserve get might and main,
Anon a Personʹs gifts ungraced remain.
Shaid Koi Mantaq Ho Nihan Iss Ke Amal Mein
Taqdeer Nahin Tabe-e-Mantaq Nazar Ati
Perhaps some rules of Logic are concealed,
Mishaps that lie in wait are not revealed.
Haan, Aik Haqiqat Hai Ke Maloom Hai Sub Ko
Tareekh-e-Ummam Jis Ko Nahin Hum Se Chupati
There is a fact that all of us can know,
World annals much light on this matter throw.
‘Har Lehza Hai Qoumon Ke Amal Par Nazar Iss Ki
Burran Sift-e-Taeg-e-Do Paikar Nazar Iss Ki !’
Fate keeps its eye on what the nations do,
Like two‐edged sword can riddle through and through.
