ai nafs-e-sitamgar sarapa hasrat
ai nafs-e-sitamgār sarāpā hasrat
juz shukr turā niist hazārāñ ne'amat
qāne' na shudī gaah na gashtī kHursand
duniyā na buvad ba-qadr-e-tūl-e-amlat
O my atrocious self an embodiment of despair !
You cannot get bounties unless you are grateful !
You can be happy only if you are contented !
The world cannot be yours to the extent of your hope.
ai nafs-e-sitamgar sarapa hasrat
juz shukr tura nist hazaran ne'amat
qane' na shudi gah na gashti kHursand
duniya na buwad ba-qadr-e-tul-e-amlat
O my atrocious self an embodiment of despair !
You cannot get bounties unless you are grateful !
You can be happy only if you are contented !
The world cannot be yours to the extent of your hope.
