aisi qismat kahan ki jam aata
bu-e-mai bhi idhar nahin aai
That I would get a goblet it was'nt my fate
now even the whiff of wine does'nt permeate
Muztar Khairabadi
mere gunah ziyaada hain ya teri rahmat
karim tu hi bata de hisab kar ke mujhe
whether my sins are greater of your mercy pray?
My lord take account and tell me this today
Muztar Khairabadi
musibat aur lambi zindagani
buzurgon ki dua ne mar Dala
all these worldly troubles and longevity
blessings of the elders is the death of me
Muztar Khairabadi
na kisi ki aankh ka nur hun na kisi ke dil ka qarar hun
jo kisi ke kaam na aa sake main wo ek musht-e-ghubar hun
I'm not the light of any eye, for me none has a care
no use to anyone am I, dust merely scattered there
Muztar Khairabadi
allah re be-KHudi ki tere pas baiTh kar
tera hi intizar kiya hai kabhi kabhi
o lord! There are times when such is my raptured state
even though I am with you, and yet for you I wait
Naresh Kumar Shad
gunahon se hamein raghbat na thi magar ya rab
teri nigah-e-karam ko bhi munh dikhana tha
O Lord, I was not drawn to sinning all the time
how else could I confront your mercy so sublime
Naresh Kumar Shad
itna bhi na-umid dil-e-kam-nazar na ho
mumkin nahin ki sham-e-alam ki sahar na ho
disheartened or shortsighted O heart you need not be
this night of sorrow surely will a dawn tomorrow see
Naresh Kumar Shad
