Ejaz Hai Kisi Ka Ya Gardish-e-Zamana!
Toota Hai Asia Mein Seher-e-Farangiyana
This wonder by some glance is wrought, or fortune’s wheel has come full round:
At last the Frankish charm has broke, The East by which in past was bound.

Tameer-e-Ashiyan Se Main Ne Ye Raaz Paya

By the building of my nest, This secret hid was brought to view
That for the bards that sing and chant the choice of nest is bolt from blue.

Who knows, you mat anon become the threshold of some sacred shrine.
Ae LA ILAH Ke Waris! Baqi Nahin Hai Tujh Mein
Guftar-e-Dilbarana, Kirdar-e-Qaharana
O heir to creed no god but He, In you I see no sign or trace
Of mighty deeds that terror strike, Your talk devoid of charm and grace.
Teri Nigah Se Dil Seenon Mein Kanpte The
Khoya Gya Hai Tera Jazb-e-Qalandarana
Your glances bold would strike the heart with awe, though sheathed within the breast:
Alas! a Qalandar’s fervent zeal in you is dead and is at rest.
Khoya Gya Hai Tera Jazb-e-Qalandarana
Your glances bold would strike the heart with awe, though sheathed within the breast:
Alas! a Qalandar’s fervent zeal in you is dead and is at rest.

His speech and song display alike a confidential mode and air.
