sarmad jismast-o-jaanash dar dast-e-kase ast
'sarmad' jismast-o-jānash dar dast-e-kase ast
tīrest vale kamānash dar dast-e-kase ast
mī ḳhvāst ki aadam shuda az daam jehad
gaave shud-o-rīsmānash dar dast-e-kase ast
Sarmad is a body with the soul in another's hand.
He is an arrow with the bow in another's hand.
He wished to be man and thereby to get freedom
But turned a cow with the rope in another’s hand.
'sarmad' jismast-o-jaanash dar dast-e-kase ast
tirest wale kamanash dar dast-e-kase ast
mi KHwast ki aadam shuda az dam jehad
gawe shud-o-rismanash dar dast-e-kase ast
Sarmad is a body with the soul in another's hand.
He is an arrow with the bow in another's hand.
He wished to be man and thereby to get freedom
But turned a cow with the rope in another’s hand.
