Raah dekhtay hain roz - Waiting eagerly

Raah dekhtay hain roz farishton kay aanay ki
Ghar kay darvaajay pay magar kutta bitha rakha hai

Translation:
Every day, waiting eagerly for the angel of peace to enter.
While keeping a dog at the entrance of the house - guarding the door.
                  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In western traditions - the angels are dressed in white robes
- a symbol of peace and bliss. 

In eastern traditions, the dog is considered a symbol of greed and excessive desires. 

How can peace and bliss enter the house of mind if it is filled with so many excessive desires and greed? 
                                                'Rajan Sachdeva'

           राह देखते हैं रोज़ फ़रिश्तों के आने की  
           घर के दरवाजे पे मगर कुत्ता बिठा रखा है
