تري دنيا جہان مرغ و ماہي
English title: Thine is the world of birds and beasts, O Lord!
تري دنيا جہان مرغ و ماہيمري دنيا فغان صبح گاہي
تري دنيا ميں ميں محکوم و مجبور!مري دنيا ميں تيري پادشاہي
Thine is the world of birds and beasts, O Lord! And mine is the world of sighs by day and night; I am a shackled slave in this world of Thine, and Thou art the supreme ruler of my world.
