aane mein sada der lagate hi rahe tum
jate rahe hum jaan se aate hi rahe tum
Delay in arriving always managed to contrive
this world I was leaving, yet you didn't arrive
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
aati jati hai ja-ba-ja badli
saqiya jald aa hawa badli
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
ai ajal ek din aaKHir tujhe aana hai wale
aaj aati shab-e-furqat mein to ehsan hota
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
ain danai hai 'nasiKH' ishq mein diwangi
aap saudai hain jo kahte hain saudai mujhe
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
dariya-e-husn aur bhi do hath baDh gaya
angDai us ne nashshe mein li jab uTha ke hath
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
dekh kar tujh ko qadam uTh nahin sakta apna
ban gae surat-e-diwar tere kuche mein
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
dil siyah hai baal hain sab apne piri mein safed
ghar ke andar hai andhera aur bahar chandni
in old age my heart is black and my hair is white
the house as though is dark inside, outside there is starlight
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
furqat qubul rashk ke sadme nahin qubul
kya aaen hum raqib teri anjuman mein hai
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
furqat-e-yar mein insan hun main ya ki sahab
har baras aa ke rula jati hai barsat mujhe
Imam Bakhsh Nasikh
