ibaadat KHuda ki ba-ummid-e-hur
magar tujh ko zahid haya kuchh nahin
you pray to God, hoping for virgins in paradise
yet no speck of shame can I fathom in your eyes

aap ka lahja shahad jaisa tarannum-KHez hai
KHamushi ab toDiye aur boliye mere liye
Your accent is sweet as honey and melodious too
Break your silence now and say aomething, for me

abhi to apne safar ki hai ibtida sahab
How can I call you unfaithful already
When this is only the beginning of our journey, saha
Indira Varma
ahaar aai to khul kar kaha hai phulon ne
ye kis ne chheD di gulshan mein phir jamal ki baat
With the coming of spring, flowers have burst into speech
Who has again spread this tale of beauty in the garden
Indira Varma
ahaaron ke aanchal mein KHush-bu chhupi hai
gulon ki qaba mein bhare hain sabhi rang
The fragrance swings in the apron of spring
The raiments of flowers are filled with all the colours
Indira Varma
kaise sahra mein bhaTakta hai mera tishna-lab
kaisi basti hai jahan milta nahin pani tak
What is the desert where my parched lips wander
What is this place where no water is to be found
Indira Varma
kis KHata ki saza mili us ko
kis liye roz ghaTta baDhta hai
For what fault is he being so punished
That he must wax and wane every night
Indira Varma
