dil kya milaoge ki hamein ho gaya yaqin
tum se to KHak mein bhi milaya na jaega
how will you join hearts with me for I do now believe
from you a decent burial I will not receive
Dagh Dehlvi
dil le ke muft kahte hain kuchh kaam ka nahin
ulTi shikayaten huin ehsan to gaya
she takes my heart for free and yet holds it in disdain
far from showing gratitude, she ventures to complain
Dagh Dehlvi
hosh o hawas o tab o tawan 'dagh' ja chuke
ab hum bhi jaane wale hain saman to gaya
consciousness and sanity, zeal, power are no more
it's time for me to go as well, my goods have gone before
Dagh Dehlvi
is nahin ka koi ilaj nahin
roz kahte hain aap aaj nahin
ah! this denial, nothing can allay
every day you say no, not today
Dagh Dehlvi
jis mein lakhon baras ki huren hon
aisi jannat ko kya kare koi
where virgins aged a million years reside
hopes for such a heaven why abide
Dagh Dehlvi
kahin hai id ki shadi kahin matam hai maqtal mein
koi qatil se milta hai koi bismil se milta hai
festive joy in places, elsewhere gloom of genocide
some like the murderer rejoice, some victim-like abide
Dagh Dehlvi
kahne deti nahin kuchh munh se mohabbat meri
lab pe rah jati hai aa aa ke shikayat meri
from voicing my emotions, love makes me refrain
grievances come to my lips but silent there remain
Dagh Dehlvi
