DAY EIGHT - TRANSLATION (ENGLISH GUESS PAPER FOR CLASS 9)

TRANSLATION FROM ENGLISH INTO URDU

Paragraph No. 1
     The entire journey of the great leader's struggle for a separate homeland for the Muslims of the subcontinent was based on the pivot of the Muslim unity and oneness as a nation. He talked about Pakistan in such a clear terms that a common man could understand it. 
Paragraph No. 2
     Quaid-e-Azam was a man of strong faith and belief. He firmly believed that the new emerging state of Pakistan based on Islamic principles would reform the society as a whole. In his Eid message, September 1945, Quaid-e-Azam said, "Islam is a complete code regulating the whole Muslim society, every department of life collectively and individually."
Paragraph No. 3
     Today the Quaid's Pakistan is facing numerous challenges. We have forgotten how much struggle Muslims had made under the dynamic leadership of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah. We can overcome our present difficulties by following the Quaid's golden motto, "Faith, Unity and Discipline." We can make our nation strong by remembering his advice to the youth, "It is now up to you to work, work and work; and we are bound to succeed."
Paragraph No. 4
     The Sultan Ahmad Masjid is one of the most impressive monuments in the world. It is also known as Blue Masjid because of the blue tiles that embellish its interior. Situated in Istanbul, the largest city in Turkey and the capital of Ottoman Empire from 1453 to 1923, it has become the most popular tourist attraction. 
Paragraph No. 5
     Construction of the Masjid was started in 1609. The royal architect Sedefhar Mehmat Aga, was appointed by the Sultan as in-charge of the project. The opening ceremony was held in 1616. Unfortunately, the Sultan could not see the completion of the Masjid in his life. It was completed in the reign of his successor Mustafa I. 
Paragraph No. 6
     The Masjid has a spacious forecourt surrounded by a continuous vaulted arcade. It has ablution facilities on both sides. In the centre there is a fountain which is rather small in contrast with the magnitude of the courtyard. A heavy iron chain hangs in the upper part of the court entrance on the western side. 
Paragraph No. 7
     The upper level of the interior is adorned with blue paint. More than 200 stained glass windows with intricate designs allow natural light to brighten up its interior and the chandeliers illuminate it with their glow. The decorations include A'yat from the Holy Quran. The floors are covered with carpets. 
Paragraph No. 8
     The most important element in the interior of the Masjid is the mehrab, which is made of finely carved marble. To the right of the mehrab is a richly decorated pulpit. The Masjid is so designed that even when it is most crowded, everyone in the Masjid can hear and see the Imam
Paragraph No. 9
     In the evening, a large number of tourists and Turks gather in the park facing the Masjid to hear the call to the evening namaz. The Masjid is flooded with lights and so are the hearts of the believers with divine love. Though much has been lost of Blue Masjid over the years yet it has not lost the love of its visitors. The Masjid is still one of the most frequently visited monuments of the world. 
Paragraph No. 10
     It was the beginning of my profession as a nurse. I worked in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of neurology ward. As a young professional, I wished to save the world. I was excited to see patients making quick recoveries from devastating accidents, yet I was pained to nurse those who were struck with acute neurological disorder. 
Paragraph No. 11
     I was upset. The advice to leave the patient unattended did not seem right. I knew that she had suffered from major neural damage, but she needed to be given a chance. An inner voice somewhere within me spoke, "Try once for her."
Paragraph No. 12
     I went to the senior nurse and told her that I wanted to help this patient and work with her more closely. The senior nurse looked at me with utter surprise and remarked that she had orders from the doctor in-charge to shift her to the general ward. The doctors thought that she was a hopeless case and the bed must be spared for other patients.
