By rote memorization and book knowledge you claimed to be a Qaazi (Qadhi/Judge)
By equipping thy self with a sword you claimed to be a Ghaazi (War hero)
By visiting Makkah and Madinah you claimed to be a Hajji
O Mullah what have you really earned when your Beloved with you is not Raazi (Radhi/satisfied)?
(Qaazi = Arabic Qadhi = Judge)
(Ghazi = War hero)
(Raazi = satisfied/accepting)
