(Bal-e-Jibril-162) Haal-o-Maqam
Worlds Apart
Bande Ko Atta Karte Hain Chashme-e-Nigran Aur
When the heart is enlightened,
It is blessed with an inward eye.
Ahwal-o-Maqamat Pe Mouqoof Hai Sub Kuch
Har Lehza Hai Salik Ka Zaman Aur Makan Aur
The initiate has a different level
Of space and time in each position.
Mullah Ki Azan Aur, Mujahid Ki Azan Aur
The mullah’s and the crusader’s azan,
The same in words, are apart in spirit.
Kargas Ka Jahan Aur Hai, Shaheen Ka Jahan Aur
The vulture and the eagle soar
In the same air, but in worlds apart.
