اہل محفل کو دکھا دیں اثر صیقل عشقسنگ امروز کو آئینہ فردا کر دیں

English translation

We should show the assemblage the effect of Love’s polish. We should convert the stone of today into the mirror* of tomorrow.
* This refers to the technology of glass making, ultimately making mirrors, whose starting material is a base material like silicates in stones and soil. This hemistich means that we should convert the youth of today, who are inert and useless like stones, into the mirrors of tomorrow.)
