وہی ہے بندئہ حر جس کی ضرب ہے کارینہ وہ کہ حرب ہے جس کی تمام عیاری

Wohi Hai Banda-e-Hur Jis Ki Zarb Hai KariNa Woh Ke Harb Hai Jis Ki Tamam Ayyari

That man alone is brave and free, Whose stroke is full of main and might;That man is coward through and through, Who leans on guile and tricks in fight.

ازل سے فطرت احرار میں ہیں دوش بدوشقلندری و قبا پوشی و کلہ داری

Azal Se Fitrat-e-Ahrar Mein Hain Dosh Ba-DoshQalandari-o-Qaba Poshi-o-Kulahdari

From creationʹs Immemorial Dawn, Free born men own a bent of mind,Qalandarʹs traits donning cloak and crown, Such distinctive marks in them we find.

زمانہ لے کے جسے آفتاب کرتا ہےانھی کی خاک میں پوشیدہ ہے وہ چنگاری

Zamana Le Ke Jise Aftab Karta HaiUnhi Ki Khak Mein Poshida Hai Woh Chingari

The spark lies hid within their clay, Which the world to itself takes;Transforms it as if by a smell, And world—illuming sun it makes.

وجود انھی کا طواف بتاں سے ہے آزادیہ تیرے مومن و کافر، تمام زناری!

Wujood Inhi Tawaf-e-Butan Se Hai AzadYe Tere Momin-o-Kafir, Tamam Zunnari!

This life is free from ugly taint, That makes men round the fane to tread:O God! the faithful and pagan all, Have worn on shoulders sacred thread.
