Mehman-e-Aziz
مہمان عزیز
پر ہے افکار سے ان مدرسے والوں کا ضمیر
!خوب و ناخوب کی اس دور میں ہے کس کو تمیز
Pur Hai Afkar Se In Madrase Walon Ka Zameer
Khoob-o-Na-Khoob Ki Iss Dour Mein Hai Kis Ko Tameez!
The minds of those who go to school, In thoughts quite fresh and new are clad:
Alas! there are such people few who draw a line ʹtwixt good and bad.
چاہیے خانۂ دل کی کوئی منزل خالی
شاید آجائے کہیں سے کوئی مہمان عزیز
Chahiye Khana-e-Dil Ki Koi Manzil Khali
Shaid Aa Jaye Kahin Se Koi Mehman-e-Aziz
Perhaps some luminous thought may flash across the inmost part of heart
For such inspiring thoughts one must set some recess in heart apart.
(Mehman-e-Aziz)
