Zindagi Hai Jis Kuun Daa.im Alam-e-baqi Munin — Wali Dakhani
ज़िंदगी है जिस कूँ दाइम आलम-ए-बाक़ी मुनीं
जल्वा-गर कब उस अंगे यू आलम-ए-फ़ानी हुआ
— Wali Dakhani
Meaning
For someone who possesses eternal life in the everlasting realm, this transient mortal world could never show off its splendor before them.
Explanation
The poet reflects on the profound peace of a soul connected to the eternal, divine realm. For someone who has realized true, everlasting life, the fleeting attractions and hollow glitter of this transient world hold no charm. Once your heart belongs to something timeless and absolute, the passing illusions of life simply lose their power to dazzle or deceive you.
