Wāh kyā martabah ay Ghawth hai bālā terā

[Aqdas]

Wāh kyā martabah ay Ghawth hai bālā terā
Ūñche ūñchoñ ke saroñ se qadam aálā terā

O how elevated your station is O Ghawth!
Your feet are superior to the heads of other greats

---
Sar bhalā kyā koyi jāney ke hai kaysā terā
Awliyā mal'te haiñ āñkheñ woh hai talwā terā

Who can know the greatness of your head?
When saints place the dust of your feet upon their eyes

---
Kyā da'be jis pe himāyat kā ho panjah terā
Sheyr ko khat're meñ lātā nahīñ kuttā terā

How can he be harmed who has your protective hand upon him?
Even a lion is endangered by a dog that isn't yours*

* a dog that didn't belong to the Ghawth would sit outside his home. A saint once came with his lion to meet the Ghawth and this dog killed the lion. So Alahazrat is saying, if a dog that you don't even own can harm a lion - then what about us who are your servants?

 

[Aqdas]

Tu Husayni Hasani kyūñ na Muhyuddīñ ho
Ay Khizar majmaé bahrayn hai chashmā terā

You're from Husayn and Hasan, why wouldn't you be the reviver of faith?
O Khizar! Your spring is the convergence of two oceans

---
Qasmeñ de de ke khilātā hai pilātā hai tujhe
Pyārā Allah terā chāhne wālā terā

He takes oaths to give you to eat and drink,
Your beloved Allah loves you such

---
Mustafa ke tan e be sāyā ka sāyā dekhā
Jis ne dekhā meri jāñ jalwah e zeybā terā

They saw the shadow of the shadowless Mustafa,
My life! Whoever had seen your beautiful self

---
Kyūñ na qāsim ho ke tū ibn Abu'l Qāsim hai
Kyūñ na qādir ho me mukhtār hai bābā terā

Why wouldn't you be the distributor when you're the son of Abu'l Qasim?
Why wouldn't you be powerful when your grandfather holds all authority?

---
Nabawi mīñh álawi fasl batūli gulshan
Hasani phūl husayni hai mahaknā terā

Prophetic rain, the harvest of Ali, the garden of Fatima,
The flower of Hasan! Your fragrance is of Husayn

---
Mawt nazdīk gunāhoñ ki taheñ mayl ke khawl
Āa baras jā ke nahā dho le ye pyāsā terā

Death near, vast sins, coverings of dirt,
O rain down on us! So your thirsty one can bathe and cleanse

Kyā da'be jis pe himāyat kā ho panjah terā
Sheyr ko khat're meñ lātā nahīñ kuttā terā

How can he be harmed who has your protective hand upon him?
Even a lion is endangered by a dog that isn't yours*

A Qadri shaykh once taught me to recite this verse (as wazifa) whenever faced with any calamity/problem (i.e. recite 11 times, with durood sharif at the start and end). I have tried it on innumerable occasions and I can vouch that it is extremely beneficial.

@sherkhan

alahazrat wrote immortal verses which contain not only praise but also litanies and tasawwuf.

one of my favorites is:

ibn zahra ko mubarak ho 'arus-e-qudrat
qadiri paaein tasadduq mere dulha tera

this verse is teeming with imperceptible power and glorious tidings.
