મિટ્ટી હતો, તે આપનો બંદો બનાવ્યો−શી રહમ!
માગી ગુલામી આપની, બખ્શી મહોબત−શી રહમ!
I was mere dust, yet you made me your servant—what mercy!I sought your servitude, and you bestowed love—what mercy!

આ આપને જોઈ લજાતાં બાગના મારાં ગુલો;

Just let my desires be fulfilled, make me whole;
Even that, I'll count as mercy, a kindness of your soul.
