گلشنِ فکر میں جب فکرِ رسا چلتی ہے

Gulshan-e-fikr mein jab fikr-e-rasa chalti hai
Shaakh-e-tooba pe naseem-e-sahari chalti hai

My poetic eloquence is the essential salt that enriches the grand feast of human speech; The captivating grace of my diction holds the entire world spellbound! My restful contemplation blossoms with the radiant rose of musical melody; My luminous presence casts a brilliant light even upon the eyes of the night stars! Whenever my soaring, perceptive intellect wanders through the garden of thought, It glides like a gentle morning breeze through the branches of Paradise!
