Reflections of Mihrab Gul Afghan-07

People of Rome and Syria have changed and so have those of India; You, the son of mountains! Learn to know your khudi. Learn to know your khudi, O careless Afghan!

Weather is favourable, water plenty and soil fertile, He is no true farmer if he does not work in the fields. Learn to know your khudi, O careless Afghan!

If its waves don’t fret and fume, it isn’t river; If the winds are not violent, it isn’t storm. Learn to know your khudi, O careless Afghan!

He who discovers himself in soul after a hard labour, Is far better than kings and monarchs. Learn to know your khudi, O careless Afghan!

Your lack of knowledge has saved the honour of all ignorant people; The learned are bertering away their faith. Learn to know your khudi, O careless Afghan!
