afsos za sar ta ba-qadam bul-hawasi
afsos za sar tā ba-qadam bul-havasī
andesha ba-kun ba-bīñ che chīze che kasī
āzād basho za dām-e-ġhaflat guftam
tā dar hose asīr-e-andar qafasī
Alas ! from head to foot you are an embodiment of lust,
Just think and see what you really are !
I asked you to devise means to get out of the snare of
indolence,
You are in a cage as long as you are a captive of greed.
afsos za sar ta ba-qadam bul-hawasi
andesha ba-kun ba-bin che chize che kasi
aazad basho za dam-e-ghaflat guftam
ta dar hose asir-e-andar qafasi
Alas ! from head to foot you are an embodiment of lust,
Just think and see what you really are !
I asked you to devise means to get out of the snare of
indolence,
You are in a cage as long as you are a captive of greed.
