SHIKWA - EXPLANATION OF 4TH STANZA



ہم سے پہلے تھا عجب تیرے جہاں کا منظر
کہیں مسجود تھے پتھر ، کہیں معبود شجر
خوگر پیکر محسوس تھی انساں کی نظر
مانتا پھر کوئی ان د یکھےخدا کو کیوں کر
تجھ کو معلوم ہے لیتا تھا کوئی نام تیرا ؟
قوت بازوے مسلم نے کیا کام تیرا

Before we came into being , your world was very weird and strange
Stones were being worshiped at some places and trees were regarded as gods in other parts
Human tendency then was to worship the things which can be seen.
Why would people accept a God that was not conspicous?  
Do you know someone who was there to take your name ?
It was the strength of Muslims which did your work
