go haram ke raaste se
woh pahunch gaye khuda tak
teri raahguzar se jaate to
kuchh aur baat hoti
though he found god
through the holy places
had he taken your path, it would've
turned out a different story
Theme:Religion, Reason & Tradition (48)
jahaan par sarhaden
dair-o-haram ki khatm hoti hain
wahin par noor-e-imaan hai
wahin raah-e-yaqeen nikli
where the borders of
temples and mosques end
radiance of belief shines forth
the road to conviction begins
kiska kaaba? kaisa qibla?
kaun haram hai? kya ehraam?
kooche ke us ke baashindon ne
sab ko yahin se salaam kiya
which sanctum? what holy direction?
who is divine? which holy robes?
from the lane of the beloved
we bid farewell to all
hazrat-e-dil yahi hai
dair-o-haram
khaana-e-yaar ka
tawaaf karo
in this revered heart
is the temple and mosque
worship by going around
this abode of the beloved
