Dub jate hain umidon ke safine is mein
main na manunga ki aansu hai zara sa pani
when hope and aspirations drown in them so easily
that tears are just some water, how can I agree
Josh Malsiani
jis ko tum bhul gae yaad kare kaun us ko
jis ko tum yaad ho wo aur kise yaad kare
him whom you have forgotten who else will recall
he who thinks of you will think of no one else at all
Josh Malsiani
maqbul hon na hon ye muqaddar ki baat hai
sajde kisi ke dar pe kiye ja raha hun main
whether or not accepted, it is up to fate
at her doorstep on and on, I myself prostrate
Josh Malsiani
ye ada hui ki jafa hui ye karam hua ki saza hui
use shauq-e-did ata kiya jo nigah ki tab na la sake
is this grace or torment, a favour or a punishment
Lust for sight he has got, but no vision to present
Josh Malsiani
gul se lipTi hui titli ko gira kar dekho
aandhiyo tum ne daraKHton ko giraya hoga
trees you may have rooted out, o storms but now this hour
lets see you drop the butterfly thats clinging to the flowe
Kaif Bhopali
mai-kade ki taraf chala zahid
subh ka bhula sham ghar aaya
the priest now proceeds towards the tavern's door
to the true path returns he who strayed before
Kaleem Aajiz
nind to dard ke bistar pe bhi aa sakti hai
un ki aaghosh mein sar ho ye zaruri to nahin
E'en on a bed of pain, sleep well could come
In her arms,merely, recumbent, it need not be
