Ejad-e-Ma’ani
ایجاد معانی
ہر چند کہ ایجاد معانی ہے خدا داد
!کوشش سے کہاں مرد ہنر مند ہے آزاد
Har Chand Ke Aeejad-e-Maani Hai Khudad
Koshish Se Kahan Mard-e-Hunarmand Hai Azad!
It is a gift by God bestowed to coin fresh words with meanings new;
Yet skilful artists must work hard, As an inborn trend is owned by few.
خون رگ معمار کی گرمی سے ہے تعمیر
میخانۂ حافظ ہو کہ بتخانۂ بہزاد
Khoon-e-Rag-e-Maamar Ki Garmi Se Hai Tameer
Maikhana-e-Hafiz Ho Ke Butkhana-e-Behzad
It is the heat in masonʹs blood that builds structures of various forms:
It may be Behzadʹs picture hall, or house of wine where Hafiz charms.
بے محنت پیہم کوئی جوہر نہیں کھلتا
!روشن شرر تیشہ سے ہے خانۂ فرہاد
Be Mehnat-e-Peham Koi Johar Nahin Khulta
Roshan Sharer-e-Teesha Se Hai Khana-e-Farhad!
Without resorting to incessant strife no skill or art completion gains:
If Farhad does not hew the rocks, No sparks flash, dark his house remains!
