38 A'INA-E-KAMALAT-E-ISLAM-DAFI UL-WASĀWIS ایکه چون ما بر در تو صد ہزار امید وار راغب اندر رحمتت یا رحمۃ اللہ آمدیم O mercy of God! We have come to you seeking your mercy; Like me, there are hundreds of thousands of hopefuls waiting upon your threshold. وقف راهت کرده ام این سرکه بر دوش ست بار یا نبی اللہ نثار روئے محبوب توام O Prophet of Allah! I offer my being for your lovely countenance; This head of mine, lying heavy on my shoulders, is but an offering in your service. عشق او در دل ہمی جو شد چو آب از آبشار تا بمن نور رسولِ پاک را بنموده اند Ever since I have been allowed to witness the light of the Holy Messenger, His love has been gushing forth from my heart as water gushes from a waterfall! یکطرف اے ہمدمان نام از گرد و جوار آتش عشق از دم من بیچو برقی می جهد The fire of devotion emanates from my breath like lightning. O weak-hearted companions! Move away from my proximity. ای بران روی و سرش جان و سر و روم نثار بر سر وجد است دل تا دید روی او به خواب Ever since I saw his countenance in a dream, my heart is in ecstasy; My very being, my body, and my soul, are but an offering at the altar of his body and countenance. صد ہزاران یوسفے بینم درین چاه ذقن و آن صحیح ناصری کشد از دم او بے شمار I see hundreds of thousands of Josephs in the dimple of his chin; I see countless Messiahs of Nazareth given birth by his breath. بادشاہ ملک و ملت ملجا ء ہر خاکسار تاجدار ہفت کشور آفتاب شرق و غرب He is the sovereign of the seven continents; he is the Sun of the East and the West; He is king of both the worlds—he is a haven for all the humble.
