درد عشق

ہر دل مے خیال کی مستی سے چور ہےکچھ اور آجکل کے کلیموں کا طور ہے

English translation

Every heart is intoxicated with the wine of thinking; something different is the Toor of the Kalims of this age.
(Sub-conscious Longing to see God is lacking in the present day so called seekers of the Truth.)

Translated by Dr M.A.K. Khalil
