Faqeeri jis ne ki goya ke us ne baadshahi ki - Khwaja haider Ali 'Aatish'

Faqeeri jis ne ki goya ke us ne baadshahi ki

Jise zill-e-huma kahte hain, darveshon ka kambal hain

~ Khwaja haider Ali 'Aatish' 

(He who opts for the beggar's life, enjoys kingly state,

The blanket of a beggar is the fabled phoenix shade)

Naqsh-e-soorat ko mita - Khwaja Haider Ali Aatish

Naqsh-e-soorat ko mita, aashna maani ka ho

Qatra bhi dariya hai jo dariya mein shamil ho gaya....

~ Hazrat Khwaja Haider Ali Aatish
