اسپ ہمّت سوئے اختر تاختی
You have moved the horse of
your thoughts quite far
آدمِ مسجود را نہ شناختی
But you could not recognize the
adored Adam
آخر آدم زادہ اےناخلف
O’ disloyal son, you are the children
of Adam after all
چند پنداری تو پستی را شرف
How long do you consider humiliation
as elevation
چند گوئی من بگیرم عالمے
How long do you boast that you
would conquer whole world
ایں جہاں را پُر کنم از خود ہمے
And filled the world with yourself
You
have unleashed the horses of your powers to achieve bodily desires and engaged
day & night to obtain them. And you could not recognize Adam, who was prostrated
by angels. O’ disloyal child, after all you are the son of Adam, then why have
you wasted your powers and destiny in obtaining worldly desires. How long do
you consider your humiliation as your elevation and your exaltation. How long
do you boast that you are overpowering whole world and fill the world with your
things, equipage, grandeur, dominion and interests.
The
objective of interrogation in the couplets چند
پنداری and چند
گوئی is the inculcation of
negation of these contents. Thus these lessons create another question that even
if one disconnects, as per the advise for future, with the explained veils of
worldly knowledge i.e. philosophy & sinister intelligence and worldly deeds
i.e. aspiration of world and worldly desires, craving, wealth and jewels, even then
how can the repentance of sins, connection with other than Allah, evil thoughts
and bad manners of older times which are assembled in the heart, be done. This has
been explained in the subsequent couplets.
