Agarcha Maghribiyon Ka Junoon Bhi Tha Chalaak
Intuition in the West was clever in its power,
But had not the plenitude for absolute abandon.
Naseeb-e-Madrasa Ya Rab Ye Aab-e-Atish Naak
The quintessence of life is the force of faith supreme—
It is a force denied to all our seats of learning.
Ye Kehkashan, Ye Sitare, Ye Neelgoon Aflaak
The galaxies, the planets, the firmament, are all
Waiting for man’s rise, like a star in heaven.
Damagh Roshan-o-Dil Teerah-o-Nigah Bebaak
Brains are bright and hearts are dark and eyes are bold,
Is this the sum and substance of what our age has gained?
Wagarna Aag Hai Momin, Jahan Khs-o-Khashak
The world is a haystack for the fire of the Muslim soul,
But if thou art eyeless, thou canst not find thy way.
Kise Khabar Ke Junoon Bhi Hai Sahib-e-Idraak
To a multitude of men, reason is the guide,
They know not that frenzy has a wisdom of its own.
Mere Kalam Pe Hujjat Hai Nukta-e-Loulaak
The world entire is a legacy of the Man of Faith:
I say it on the authority of we would not have created it.
