(Bal-e-Jibril-167) (فقر) Faqr

(Bal-e-Jibril-167) Faqar

Faqr

Ek Faqr Sikhata Hai Sayyad Ko Nakhcheeri
Ek Faqr Se Khulte Hain Asrar-e-Jahangeeri

There is a faqr that teaches the hunter to be a prey;
There is another that opens the secrets of mastery over the world.

Ek Faqr Se Qoumon Mein Maskeeni-o-Dilgeeri
Ek Faqr Se Mitti Mein Khasiyat-e-Ikseeri

There is a faqr that is the root of needfulness and misery among nations;
There is another that turns mere dust into elixir.

Ek Faqr Hai Shabiri, Is Faqr Se Hai Meeri
Meeras-e-Musalmani, Sarmaya-e-Shabiri!

One faqr is Shabiri, and it has qualities of emperor
Which is Muslim heritage and real wealth of Shabir.
