Allah wohi hai tau na muztir ho
Jab maayusi dilon pe chhaa jaati hai
Dushman se bhi naam tera japwaati hai - /2/
Allah wohi hai tau na muztir ho
Mumkin hai ke sukh mein bhul jaaen itfaal
Lekin unhein dukh mein maan hi yaad aati hai /2/
Allah wohi hai tau na muztir ho
Original
Mix of two Urdu rubaiyat (rubai is a Persian quatrain; plural rubaiyat).
"Allah wohi hai tau na muztir ho" is a stanza from a rubai by Mirza Salamat Ali Dabir (19th century). Azam Ali uses it as a chorus./"Don't feel perturbed when Eternal God is here".
Jab maayusi dilon pe chhaa jaati hai,
Dushman se bhi naam tera japwaati hai;
Mumkin hai ke sukh mein bhul jaaen itfaal,
Lekin unhein dukh mein maan hi yaad aati hai.
A rubai by Maulana Altaf Hussain Hali (19th century).
When despair our hearts doth maul,
Atheists too Thy name recall;
Children might forget their mother in prosperous days;
They cannot but think of her when hard times appal.
