(Bal-e-Jibril-183) (چونتی اور عقاب)Chionti Aur Auqab

(Bal-e-Jibril-183) Chionti Aur Auqab

Chionti Aur Auqab
The Ant And The Eagle

Chionti
The Ant

Main Paimaal-o-Khawar-o-Preshan-o-Dardmand
Tera Maqam Kyun Hai Sitaron Se Bhi Buland?

I am so miserable and forlorn—
Why is your station loftier than the skies?

Auqab
The Eagle

Tu Rizq Apna Dhoondti Hai Khak-e-Rah Mein
Main Na Sipihr Ko Nahin Lata Nigah Mein!

You forage about in dusty paths;
The nine heavens are as nothing to me!
