Dyar E Ishq Mein Apna Maqaam Paida Ker
Create a place for thyself in the world of love;
Naya Zamana Naye Subh O Shaam Paida Ker
Create a new age, new days, and new nights.
Khuda Agar Dil-E-Fitrat Shinaas De Tujhko
If God grant thee an eye for nature's beauty,
Sukoot-E-Laalaa-O-Gul Se Kalaam Paida Kar
Converse with the silence of flowers; respond to their love.
Uthana Sheesha Garan-E-Farang Ke Saath
Do not be beholden to the West's artisans,
Safal-E-Paak Se (P?)Meena-O-Jaam Paida Ker
My ghazal is the essence of my life-blood,
Mera Tareek Ameeri Nahi Faqeeri Hai
My way of life is poverty, not the pursuit of wealth;
Khudi Na Baich Gareebi Mein Naam Paida Kar
Seek thy sustenance in what thy land affords.
Dyar E Ishq Mein Apna Maqaam Paida Ker...
Create a place for thyself in the world of love;
