مسلمان فاقہ مست و ژندہ پوش است
English title: A Muslim gloats in hunger and patches,
مسلمان فاقہ مست و ژندہ پوش استز کارش جبرئیل اندر خروش است
Muslim, clad in rags and given to starvation, Gabriel is all protest at his deeds;
عہد حاضر کا مسلمان بھوکا اور پھٹے پرانے کپڑے پہننے والا ہے ۔ اس کے اعمال دیکھ کر جبرئیل علیہ السلام کے دل میں شور و غل برپا ہے ۔
بیا نقش دگر ملت بریزیمکہ این ملت جہان را بار دوش است
come, let us lay the foundation of a new millat, for this millat has become an unbearable burden.
آوَ ، ہم ایک نئی قوم کا نقش بنائیں کیونکہ یہ قوم دنیا کے کندھوں کا بوجھ ہے ۔
