ہند میں حکمت دیں کوئی کہاں سے سیکھےنہ کہیں لذت کردار، نہ افکار عمیق

Hind Mein Hikmat-e-Deen Koi Kahan Se SikheNa Kahin Lazzat-e-Kirdar, Na Afkar-e-Aumeeq

There is no place in Ind wherefrom to learn, The tenets that the Muslim Faith concern.They are devoid of zeal for godly acts, And are not wont to seek its basic facts.

حلقہ شوق میں وہ جرات اندیشہ کہاںآہ محکومی و تقلید و زوال تحقیق!

Halqa-e-Shouk Mein Woh Jurrat-e-Andesha KahanAah Mehkoomi-o-Taqleed-o-Zawal-e-Tehqeeq !

The mystics, who were keen their faith to spread, Are silent now and thought for them a dread.Alas! the state of bondage deprives of zest, Slaves tread the beaten path and relinquish quest.

خود بدلتے نہیں، قرآں کو بدل دیتے ہیںہوئے کس درجہ فقیہان حرم بے توفیق!

Khud Badalte Nahin, Quran Ko Badal Dete HainHuwe Kis Darja Faqeehan-e-Haram Be-Toufeeq !

The jurists are helpless to such extent, Canʹt change themselves but would change Quranʹs content.How sad, the jurists canʹt shift their outlook, But would prefer to change the Holy Book!

ان غلاموں کا یہ مسلک ہے کہ ناقص ہے کتابکہ سکھاتی نہیں مومن کو غلامی کے طریق!

In Ghulamon Ka Ye Maslak Hai Ke Naqis Hai KitabKe Sikhati Nahin Momin Ko Ghulami Ke Tareeq!

These abject slaves opine and cling to creed, That Holy Book is full of flaws indeed.They think it incomplete for this fact, Because it fails to teach the slavish tact.
