پیام عشق
سن اے طلب گار درد پہلو! میں ناز ہوں، تو نیاز ہو جامیں غزنوی سومنات دل کا، تو سراپا ایاز ہو جا
English translation
Listen O seeker of heart's pathos! I am Naz, you should become Niaz. I am the Ghaznavi of heart's Somnath, you completely become Ayaz.
(Naz and Niaz: In the first hemistich of this verse Love addresses those who are anxious to develop the Love of God and says that this Love is the beloved and it is necessary to become a true Lover to win it. In the second hemistich the same message is repeated in another form.)
Translated by Dr M.A.K. Khalil
