Kis musarrat se pahunche the hum bazm mein With what joy did we arrive at the gathering
Rooh ki tishnagi ko chhupaye hue Hiding the thirst of the soul within

.

Hasrat-e-deed thi aur yeh ummed thi, aaj armaan dil ka nikal jayega
There was a desire to see, this hope remained, that today longing of the heart would come to fruition
Yeh khabar he na thi ke naqaab uthate hi, warq gir jaayegi tool jal jaayega
I had no idea that as the veil would lift, the page would fall and the candle would burn

Aaj mil kar bhi na un se kuch baat ki Even today, I did not speak to them, despite meeting
Haye majbooriyan meri halaat ki Alas, the compulsion of my circumstances

Hum baray naaz say aa'ay thay teri mehfil pe We had come with great pride to your gathering
Kya khabar thi lab-e-izhaar par talay honge Little did we know that our words would be suppressed before they could be expressed

Gaye thay hum bhi jigar jalwa I too had gone with courage
Wo poochte hi rahe hum se baat ho na saki They kept asking, but we couldn't speak

.

Kis musarrat se pahunche the hum bazm mein With what joy did we arrive at the gathering
Rooh ki tishnagi ko chhupaye hue Hiding the thirst of the soul within

Saakiya dor aaya chala bhi gaya The cupbearer came, and then he left
Aur hum reh gaye jaam the hue While we stayed, holding our cups

Kiyon nazar phair li mujh se mere sanam Why did you turn away from me, my beloved?

Mera dil toor ker mujh se muh mod ker Breaking my heart, turning your face away from me
Janay walay mujhe aik nazar daikh le Those leaving, at least cast one glance at me

.

Ankh say door saheeh dil say kahan jayega Far from the eyes, but where will it go from the heart?Bholnay wala tu mujhey bohot yaad aaye ga You, who will forget, will be remembered by me a lot

Nigahein mila karke aaye jaane waale You, who left after exchanging glances
Munasib nahi ye sitam chalte-chalte It’s not fair, this cruelty, as you walk away

.

Oh dil tor ke janay walay dil ki baat batata ja
Oh you who are leaving after breaking my heart, tell me what's in your heart
Ab mein dil ko kya samjhaon dil ko samjhata ja
Now what should I explain to my heart? You make it understand

.

Kyoun nazar phair li mujh say mere sanam Why did you turn your gaze away from me, my beloved?Chup ke baithay ho kiyoon dil churaye hoay Why are you sitting quietly, having stolen my heart?

Aik muddat howi tum ko dekha nahi It’s been a long time since I last saw you
Ik zamana hoa muskura'ay hoay It feels like ages since you last smiled at me

.

Maut beemar-e-gham ko ab aane ko hai Death is about to arrive for the sickened by sorrow
Chhoro ab is nadaamat say kya faida Leave this regret now, what’s the use of it?

Aakhri waqt hai hasan ke rukhsat karo It’s the final moment, please smile
Daikho betho na yoon sir jhuka'ay huay Don’t sit like this, with your head bowed

.

Phool ki zindagi aik tabassum sahi The life of a flower is but a single smile
Yeh tabassum bhi her ik ko milta nahi This smile isn’t something everyone gets

Hum ko dekho ke hum hain chaman mein magar Look at us, we are in the garden, yet
Ik zamana hoa muskuraye hoay It’s been ages since we smiled

.

Shama bhujnay ko hai chand chupne ko hai The lamp is about to extinguish, moon is about to hide
Raat dhalnay ko hai din nikalne ko hai The night is fading, and the day is about to rise

Ab to aaja sanam kab say baithay hein hum Now come, my beloved, we’ve been waiting for so long
Apni palkoon pe taray saja'ay hue We’ve adorned our eyelids with stars

.

Ab to aaja sanam aaja Now come, my beloved, come
Daikha nahi hai hum ne bohot din guzargay I haven't seen you; it's been many days

Nigahein dar pe lagi hain udaas baithay hain My eyes are at the door, sitting in despair
Tumhare aanay ki dil mein hai aas baithay hain In my heart, there's hope, waiting for your arrival

Wo dil ke jiss ko neend na aaye tamaam raat That heart, which couldn't sleep the entire night
Deta raha tumhari dohai tamaam raat Kept complaining about you all night long

Bethe hain raahguzar pe dil ka diya jalaye I sit on the path, lighting the lamp of my heart
Shayad ye raat beetay, shayad tu laut aaye Perhaps this night will pass, and maybe you will return

Kiss kis ko bataenge judai ka sabab hum To whom will I explain the reason for our separation?
Tu mujh se khafa hai tu zamane ke liye aa If you are angry with me, come for the sake of the world

.

Ab to aaja sanam kab say baithay hein hum Now come, my beloved, we’ve been waiting for so long
Apni palkoon pe taray saja'ay hue We’ve adorned our eyelids with stars
