Couplet 495-500


تُرکِ روز آخر چوبا زرّیں سپر

At last when the day’s sepoy, with its golden shield,



ہندوئے شب رابہ تیغ افگند سَر


Removed the head of the night’s thief with the sword

میلِ ہر  جانے بسوئے تن بُود

Every soul comes to its body



ہر تنے از روح آبستن بُود


Every body becomes weighed by the soul

از صفیرے باز دام اندر کشی

You again place the trap through whistle



جملہ را دردامِ دَرد آور کشی


And trapping everyone in the traps

چونکہ نورِ  صبحدم سَر بر زند

When the light of the dawn breaks



کرگش زرّیِن گردوں پر زند


And the golden vultures start flying in the sky

فَالقُ الاِصْبَاحْ اِسرافیل وار

Reproducing morning from night, like Haz Israfeel,



جملہ رادر صورت آرد زاں دِیار


Bringing everyone to original places 

روحہائے مُنبسِط راتن کند

Free spirits are again moved back to the body



ہر تنے را باز آبستن کند


And weighed every body again with the spirit


                 The discussion regarding getting up in the morning after sleep has been explained in these couplets. When again the spirits (ارواح) come back in the cage of body, then they become busy with their daily worldly routine. For example, it trails behind the ruler/ king for redressal of its complaint (the second couplet is also the continuation of first couplet) i.e. Allah brings back the spirits in the cage of the body with His Powers, like a hunter calls the birds in the traps with his whistle, and engage all and one in different works. There is further details of this i.e. when morning breaks and the sun like a golden vulture spreads its wings. The meaning is that the morning in removing the night is like a Turk i.e. a soldier who with his golden shield chops off the head of a thief i.e. night with his sword i.e. with coming of the morning, the night moves off. The night finishes off, when day breaks and at that time, every spirit (روح) is meeting its respective body and every body is filled with spirit the way womb of a pregnant woman is filled with the baby. Like Israfeel AS, who will make people alive on the Day of Resurrection i.e. قیامہ when he blows the trumpet (صور), Allah Ta’ala brings back different creatures from the عالیمِ مثال in their original body and the spirits (ارواح), who become exuberant being away from the prison (body), will again be imprisoned in the cage of body and different bodies are filled with spirits (ارواح).
