در جہان بی ثبات او را ثباتمرگ او را از مقامات حیات

English translation

He alone has stability amidst this world of instability; death for him is one of the stations of life*.
* Here two kinds of death are mentioned: one, the death of ordinary people, the other, the death of strong personalities. Rumi has also described these two kinds of death: ‘That one in whose eyes death is destruction, he takes hold of God’s command: do not cast yourself into destruction; that one to whom death is the opening of the gate, he is addressed by God as: vie ye with one another in hastening.

Translated by Bashir Ahmad Dar

Urdu translation

اس جہان بے ثّبات میں صرف حر کو ثبات ہے؛ موت اس کے لیے زندگی کے مقامات میں سے ایک مقام ہے۔
