teri dastan koi aur thi mera waqia koi aur hai

chamak jugnu ki barq-e-be-aman malum hoti hai
qafas mein rah ke qadr-e-ashiyan malum hoti hai
the glow of fireflies appears as lightning heaven sent
the value of freedom is felt, during imprisonment

manzil mili murad mili muddaa mila
sab kuchh mujhe mila jo tera naqsh-e-pa mila
destination and desire and my ends attained
i got everything when your footprints I obtained

umr-e-daraaz mang ke lai thi chaar din
do aarzu mein kaT gae do intizar mein
a long life, four days in all, I did negotiate
two were spent in hope and two were spent in wait

izhaar-e-muddaa ka irada tha aaj kuchh
tewar tumhaare dekh ke KHamosh ho gaya
thoughI had intended my feelings to convey
seeing your disposition, I did not dare to say
