aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
aa.e the hañste khelte mai-ḳhāne meñ 'firāq'
jab pī chuke sharāb to sanjīda ho ga.e
we came to the tavern all gay and frolicsome
now having drunk the wine, somber have become
aae the hanste khelte mai-KHane mein 'firaq'
jab pi chuke sharab to sanjida ho gae
bārish sharāb-e-arsh hai ye soch kar 'adam'
bārish ke sab hurūf ko ulTā ke pī gayā
barish sharab-e-arsh hai ye soch kar 'adam'
barish ke sab huruf ko ulTa ke pi gaya
jhuuT bolā hai to qaa.em bhī raho us par 'zafar'
aadmī ko sāhab-e-kirdār honā chāhiye
jhuT bola hai to qaem bhi raho us par 'zafar'
aadmi ko sahab-e-kirdar hona chahiye
āñkheñ dikhlāte ho joban to dikhāo sāhab
vo alag bāñdh ke rakkhā hai jo maal achchhā hai
show me not your anger dear show me your youthful prime
the wealth that you have covered up is truly sublime
aankhen dikhlate ho joban to dikhao sahab
wo alag bandh ke rakkha hai jo mal achchha hai
lage muñh bhī chiḌhāne dete dete gāliyāñ sāhab
zabāñ bigḌī to bigḌī thī ḳhabar liije dahan bigḌā
lage munh bhi chiDhane dete dete galiyan sahab
zaban bigDi to bigDi thi KHabar lije dahan bigDa
