رگ مسلم ز سوز من تپید است
رگ مسلم ز سوز من تپید استز چشمش اشک بیتابم چکید استہنوز از محشر جانم نداندجہان را با نگاہ من ندید است
English translation
My passion puts fire into the Muslim veins, and my restive tears drop from his eyes;
But still he is not aware of the tumult in my soul – for he has not seen the world with my eyes.
Translated by Mustansir Mir
