One day my ship will also cast (its) anchor
One day we will passionately see Makkah
and Madinah.
Although the mine of love is in every heart,
However, it cannot be discovered without
blood and sweat apart.
Good God! These blossoming springs of
ebullition of love,
My bosom feels like a river of fire.
O tears of repentance! May I be sacrificed
over your favors,
This treasure of mercy has rained upon a
sinner.
The condition (of success) is (some) kind
attention of the men of love,
Otherwise this gem of love cannot be
attained .
Akhtar! I do agree, that there are calamities
in the path of love,
But through His grace, Tranquility descends
as well.

[Maulana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Saheb (damat barakatuhum)]
