बख़्श दो गर ख़ता करे कोई Bakhsh do gar khata karay koi

              न सुनो गर बुरा कहे कोई 
              न कहो गर बुरा करे कोई 
              रोक लो गर ग़लत चले कोई 
              बख़्श दो गर ख़ता करे कोई 
                         'असद उल्लाह खान ग़ालिब'

Na suno, gar bura kahay koi
Na kaho, gar bura karay koi
Rok lo, gar galat chalay koi
Bakhsh do, gar khata karay koi
              'Asad Ullah Khan Ghalib'

Meaning:
Hear not if evil someone speaks,
Retaliate not if evil someone does.
Restrain them if someone goes astray
Forgive, if someone is at fault. 

نہ سنو، گر برا کہے کوئی
 نہ کہو، گر برا کرے کوئی
 روک لو، گر غلط چلے کوئی
 بخش دو، گر خطا کرے کوئی.
