dil ke bechain jaziron men utar jaega
dard aahon ke muqaddar ka pata laega
Alighting on the restless islands of the heart
Pain will bring news of the fate of sighs
mere bichhde hue lamhat saja kar rakhna
vaqt lafzon men ghazal ban ke thahar jaega
Keep safe the moments of my separation
time, in the guise of a ghazal, will stand still
us ki har baat jafa-pesha hui hai aksar
zakhm ka khauf kabhi us ko bhi dahlaega
His every word has been cruel usually
the fear of being wounded will terrify him, someday
vaqt khamosh hai tuute hue rishton ki tarah
vo bhala kaise mire dil ki khabar paega
time, like snagged relationships,is silent
I wonder how he will find news of me
sham-e-gham aaj bhi guzri hai hasin khvabon men
gham-e-janan to mohabbat men sitam dhaega
the Eve of Sorrows is again spent in beautiful dreams
the giver of pain will continue his tyrannies
dil mira aaj jafaon pe bahut nazan hai
mere honton pe tabassum hi nazar aaega
today,my heart preens at injustices and cruelties
On my lips you will only see a smile
us ke mizrab se jab raag banenge dipak
megh chupke se mire dil pe baras jaega
When lamps are lit by the melody of his mizrab
Clouds will silently unburden their rains upon my heart
