مسلمانان کہ خود را فاش دیدند
English title: As long the Muslim, in self can peep,
مسلمانان کہ خود را فاش دیدندبہ ہر دریا چو گوھر آرمیدند
As long the Muslim, in self can peep, Like pearls they rest in the oceans deep.
وہ مسلمان جنھوں نے اپنے آپ کو پوری طرح دیکھ لیا ۔ وہ جس دریا میں اترے وہ اس میں موتی کی طرح پرسکون رہے ۔
اگر از خود رمیدند اندرین دیربجان تو کہ مرگ خود خریدند
From ego if you ran in this fane, Your own death you buy for life’s bargain.
اگر وہ اس بت خانہ دنیا میں اپنے آپ سے دور اور بیگانہ رہے، تو تیری جان کی قسم انھوں نے اپنے ہاتھوں اپنی موت خریدی
