You being not in your body -- Ashtavakra Gita in Urdu

You do not have elements of
Air, water, fire, earth or ether in you.
You are mere consciousness,
Know this to be free.
It’s the witness of all these.
Only embracing conscious--
You being not in your body--
You can become peaceful,
Happy and attachment-free.

In Urdu:

Tumaray main hawwa, paani, zameen
Aag aur ether kay ansar nahin hain,
Tumaray main sirif hai aagahpan.
Samjho isay aazad honay kay leeyay,
Yeh en sub ko dekhtee rehtee hai.

Sirif aagahpan ko galey lagaanay say—
Apnay aap ko andar say bhool jaanay say—
Tum aman, kushi aur bina taaluq
Apni zindgee guzaar saktay ho.
