tum mere pas hote ho goya
jab koi dusra nahin hota
in such a manner are you close to me
when no one else at all there ever be
Momin Khan Momin
tu kahan jaegi kuchh apna Thikana kar le
hum to kal KHwab-e-adam mein shab-e-hijran honge
where will you go I worry, do find a place to stay
O lonely night tomorrow, death will take me away
Momin Khan Momin
umr to sari kaTi ishq-e-butan mein 'momin'
aaKHiri waqt mein kya KHak musalman honge
Momin all your life in idol worship you did spend
How can you be a Muslim say now towards the end?
Momin Khan Momin
us naqsh-e-pa ke sajde ne kya kya kiya zalil
main kucha-e-raqib mein bhi sar ke bal gaya
bowing to her footsteps brought me shame I dread
I went to my rival's street standing on my head
Momin Khan Momin
wo jo hum mein tum mein qarar tha tumhein yaad ho ki na yaad ho
wahi yani wada nibah ka tumhein yaad ho ki na yaad ho
the love that 'tween us used to be, you may, may not recall
those promises of constancy, you may, may not recall
Momin Khan Momin
masarraton ne to chaha tha dil mein aa jaen
hujum-e-gham ne magar un ko rasta na diya
happiness did indeed in my heart seek place
but the crowd of sorrows did not move to give them space
Mushir Jhanjhanvi
tu chale sath to aahaT bhi na aae apni
darmiyan hum bhi na hon yun tujhe tanha chahen
when you walk with me the echo, of my steps should not intrude
I too should not be the between us, I want you in such solitude
