سوتوں کو جگانے کی رات

ساقی ہے شب برات پانے کی رات
یہ رات ہے سوتوں کو جگانے کی رات
جو مانگے کا سائل وہ ملے گا بے شک
یہ رات تو ہے خاص پلانے کی رات

Couplet with Explanation (Qalander Baba ؒ)




Hostile world, just a moment
World is confined in a moment
You have been granted a moment
World passes by passing moment
 (Qalander Baba Auliya ؒ)

Explanation:
It takes only a moment to deceive and trick. This entire world is confined in a single moment. In this momentary world man is granted only a small unit of time to live in. If this short life is spent in gossip and useless things, it would pass uselessly. Therefore get up and do something and advance towards your go? l and fulfill the purpose of your creation otherwise repentance would be your fate unavoidable.

I Know Naught


No idea as to where from I come
No idea where would I end
I know only that I know naught
Who knows, losing might be finding!
Qalander Baba Auliya ؒ
