Gar Hua Hai Talib-e-azadgi — Wali Dakhani
Meaning
If you seek freedom, do not become bound by religious symbols like the rosary and the sacred thread.
Explanation
Here, the poet offers a gentle yet profound reminder about the nature of true spiritual freedom. The rosary (subha) and the sacred thread (zunnar) serve as metaphors for ritualistic labels and sectarian identities that, instead of liberating the soul, end up caging it. If your heart genuinely longs for higher consciousness and liberation, you must transcend these external divisions and realize that the divine is found beyond rigid dogma.
