عقل ہے تیری سپر، عشق ہے شمشیر تریمرے درویش! خلافت ہے جہاں گیر تریماسوی اللہ کے لیے آگ ہے تکبیر تریتو مسلماں ہو تو تقدیر ہے تدبیر تریکی محمد سے وفا تو نے تو ہم تیرے ہیںیہ جہاں چیز ہے کیا، لوح و قلم تیرے ہیں

English translation

Intellect is your shield, Love is your sword; my dervish! Your vice-regency is world-conquering
Your Takbir like fire for godlessness is; if you are Muslim your prudence your destiny is.
If you are loyal to Muhammad (S.A.W.) we are yours; this universe is nothing the Tablet and the Pen are yours.
(Lauh-o-Qalam: Reference to the Lauh-i-Mahfooz or the ‘preserved tablet’ and the ‘qalam’ or pen accompanying it. This combination exists in the metaphysical world and they are the implements with which the decrees of God are recorded and in which they are preserved. The Holy Qura’an is also preserved in the same way).

Translated by Dr M.A.K. Khalil
