Saael Hoon Mujhko Qaid Kam-o-besh Ki Nahin — Khwaja Haidar Ali Aatish
Meaning
I am a beggar, bound by no restriction of little or much; the Generous One is the master of both the scant and the plentiful.
Explanation
The poet says, I am just a beggar, a seeker standing before the Giver. It is not for me to worry about how much or how little I receive. I am not bound by such calculations of more or less. That choice belongs entirely to the Generous One. The Kind Benefactor alone decides whether to give in plenty or in small measure. My job is simply to ask with an open heart and trust completely. There is a deep peace in this surrender. When you leave the amount to the Giver, you free yourself from anxiety and greed. True contentment comes from asking sincerely and accepting gracefully whatever comes your way.
