zahid tu che lazzat za riya yafta-i
zāhid tu che lazzat za riyā yāfta-ī
sad kHirqa-e-pashmīna ba-ham tāfta-ī
az rishta-e-tasbīh ki bārīk za muust
mohkam rasanī barā-e-kHud bāfta-ī
O ascetic, what profit could yon get from this hypocrisy ?
Why do you wear one hundred cloaks of wool ?
Of this thread of rosary which is finer than hair,
You have made a rope for yourself ( to hang with ).
zahid tu che lazzat za riya yafta-i
sad kHirqa-e-pashmina ba-ham tafta-i
az rishta-e-tasbih ki barik za must
mohkam rasani bara-e-kHud bafta-i
O ascetic, what profit could yon get from this hypocrisy ?
Why do you wear one hundred cloaks of wool ?
Of this thread of rosary which is finer than hair,
You have made a rope for yourself ( to hang with ).
