jo main sar-ba-sajda hua kabhi

to zamin se aane lagi sadaa

what will you get from this prayer?

achchha hai dil ke saath

rahe paasbaan-e-aqal

lekin kabhi kabhi ise

tanha bhi chod de

it's good that your mind

stands guard to the heart

but, on occasion,

do leave the heart alone

guard, sentinel

chod (1)
