aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
dostoñ se mulāqāt kī shaam hai
ye sazā kaaT kar apne ghar jā.ūñgā
doston se mulaqat ki sham hai
ye saza kaT kar apne ghar jaunga
maraz-e-ishq jise ho use kyā yaad rahe
na davā yaad rahe aur na duā yaad rahe
he who is stricken by love, remembers naught at all
no cure will come to mind, nor prayer will recall
maraz-e-ishq jise ho use kya yaad rahe
na dawa yaad rahe aur na dua yaad rahe
zālim kī to aadat hai satātā hī rahegā
apnī bhī tabī.at hai bahaltī hī rahegī
zalim ki to aadat hai satata hi rahega
apni bhi tabiat hai bahalti hi rahegi
kab vo suntā hai kahānī merī
aur phir vo bhī zabānī merī
when does she ever heed my state
and that too then when I narrate
kab wo sunta hai kahani meri
aur phir wo bhi zabani meri
vo kaun thā vo kahāñ kā thā kyā huā thā use
sunā hai aaj koī shaḳhs mar gayā yaaro
wo kaun tha wo kahan ka tha kya hua tha use
suna hai aaj koi shaKHs mar gaya yaro
