mujh gunahgar ko jo baKHsh diya
to jahannam ko kya diya tu ne
if you have forgiven offences such as mine
then to nether world what did you consign
Dagh Dehlvi
tumhaare KHat mein naya ek salam kis ka tha
na tha raqib to aaKHir wo nam kis ka tha
that new greeting in your note, from whom was it do say
if not my rival's signature, whose name was it then, pray?
Dagh Dehlvi
uzr aane mein bhi hai aur bulate bhi nahin
bais-e-tark-e-mulaqat batate bhi nahin
She is loth to come to me and keeps me well away
The cause for this hostility,she does not care to say
Dagh Dehlvi
ye to kahiye is KHata ki kya saza
main jo kah dun aap par marta hun main
tell me pray for this crime what punishment is due
if I were to thus declare- I'm dying in love for you
Dagh Dehlvi
ab to utni bhi mayassar nahin mai-KHane mein
jitni hum chhoD diya karte the paimane mein
the tavern does not even give that much wine to me
that I was wont to waste in the goblet casually
Divakar Rahi
ek aadat si ban gai hai tu
aur aadat kabhi nahin jati
you are now like a habit to me
and from a habit one, cannot be free
Dushyant Kumar
'ehsan' aisa talKH jawab-e-wafa mila
hum is ke baad phir koi arman na kar sake
I, to my troth, such a bitter response did obtain
after that I could never hope to hope again
