kamal-e-tishnagi hi se bujha lete hain pyas apni
isi tapte hue sahra ko hum dariya samajhte hain
Jigar Moradabadi
kucha-e-ishq mein nikal aaya
jis ko KHana-KHarab hona tha
Jigar Moradabadi
lakh aaftab pas se ho kar guzar gae
hum baiThe intizar-e-sahar dekhte rahe
a million suns have come and gone
still I sat waiting watching out for dawn
Jigar Moradabadi
kya KHabar thi KHalish-e-naz na jine degi
ye teri pyar ki aawaz na jine degi
Jigar Moradabadi
kya husn ne samjha hai kya ishq ne jaana hai
hum KHak-nashinon ki Thokar mein zamana hai
Jigar Moradabadi
kya bataun kis qadar zanjir-e-pa sabit hue
chand tinke jin ko apna aashiyan samjha tha mein
Jigar Moradabadi
kuchh is ada se aaj wo pahlu-nashin rahe
jab tak hamare pas rahe hum nahin rahe
she was in my embrace
I myself was lost as long she stayed with me
Jigar Moradabadi
koi ye kah de gulshan gulshan
lakh balaen ek nasheman
Jigar Moradabadi
mujhe de rahe hain tasalliyan wo har ek taza payam se
kabhi aa ke manzar-e-am par kabhi haT ke manzar-e-am se
Jigar Moradabadi
