ہزاروں خواہشیں ایسی کہ ہر خواہش پہ دم نکلے، / بہت نکلے میرے ارمان، لیکن پھر بھی کم نکلے

Hazaron khwahishen aisi ke har khwahish pe dam nikle, / Bohat nikle mere armaan, lekin phir bhi kam nikle.

Thousands of desires, each worthy of a breath, / Many of my wishes erupted, but still too few came to life.
