(Zarb-e-Kaleem-150) Raqs

Raqs
Dancing

Choro Yourap Ke Liye Raqs-e-Badan Ke Kham-o-Paich
Rooh Ke Raqs Mein Hai Zarb-e-Kaleem-Ul-Lahi !

To Europe leave the dance of serpent limb:
The prophet’s power is born of the spirit’s dance.

Sila Uss Raqs Ka Hai Tashnagi-e-Kaam-o-Dahan
Sila Iss Raqs Ka Darveshi-o-Shehanshahi!

That breeds the craving flesh, the sweating palm,
This breed the race of pilgrim and prince.
