عجم از نغمہ ہای من جوان شد
English title: Iran is young again thanks to my song
عجم از نغمہ ہای من جوان شدز سودایم متاع او گران شد
Ajam by my melodies grew young anew —
My passion made its treasures gain value true.
عجم میرے نغموں سے جوان ہو گیا —
میرے جنون سے اس کے متاع کی قیمت بڑھ گئی۔
ھجومی بود رہ گم کردہ در دشتز آواز درایم کاروان شد
Muslims were a lost throng in the wild, astray —
My voice, like a bell, turned them into a caravan on their way.
مسلمان ایک ہجوم تھے جو جنگل میں راہ گم کیے پھر رہے تھے —
میری آواز کی جرس (گھنٹی) سے وہ قافلہ بن گئے۔
