نيکۀ څېنه بړ سړا ده څۀ اړ توني چي بسيا ده
خپل وېل مندې دې پای او خپله توره یې ساتیا ده
پیني چرته رسېده ده موش ته پاته اومبې پلا ده
یه وږده توره تارۀ ده پچي هر خپل پرېدا ده
شپون ولس د کوڼ و کونګ ده هر سړا ځان ته بلا ده
Nīkə cena bəṛ saṛā da cə āṛ tūnī čī basiyā da.
Xpəl wel mənde de pāy āw xpla tūra ye sātyā da.
Pīnī čərta raseda da mūš ta pāta ombe plā da.
Ya wuẑda tora tārə da pčī har xpəl paredā da.
Špūn wuls dә kūṇ wә kūng da har saṛā źān ta balā da.
How strong/capable grandfather is, that in a hill-locked place [lit. tied place] he is prosperous.
That on his own sustenance he survives, he has kept his own bravery [lit. sword].
The world has reached where [advanced], how much of a journey we have left for us.
There is a long darkness, in it every relative is a stranger.
The shephard nation is blind and dumb, every man is a constitution to oneself.
Part of a poem by Nizamuddin Nizami Tarin
