Zarb-e-Kaleem-007) Miraj

Meeraj

Ascension

 De Walwala-e-Shauq Jise Lazzat-e-Parwaz

Kar Sakta Hai Woh Zarra Mah-o-Mehr Ko Taraaj

A mote endowed with strong desire for flight 

Can reach the Sun and Moon with effort slight.

Mushkil Nahin Yaraan-e-Chaman! Maarka-e-Baaz

Pursouz Agar Ho Nafs-e-Sina-e-Durraj

If chest of partridge fire and zeal emit,

My friends, in fight with hawk it can acquit.

Nawak Hai Musalman, Hadaf Iss Ka Hai Surreya

Hai Sirr-e-Sara Parda-e-Jaan Nukta-e-Miraaj

Ascension means to gauge a Muslimʹs heart,

The Pleiades are the target of his dart.

Tu Maanni-e-‘Wannajam’ Na Samajha To Ajab Kya

Hai Tera Mad-o-Jazar Abhi Chand Ka Mohtaaj

No wonder, meanings of Najm from you hide,

On Moon depends your oceanʹs ebb and tide.
