zulf aisee ho ke, barsaat bhee paani maange,
THE CURL SHOULD BE SUCH THAT EVEN THE RAINS SHOULD BEG FOR WATER,
zulf aisee ho ke, barsaat bhee paani maange,
THE CURL SHOULD BE SUCH THAT EVEN THE RAINS SHOULD BEG FOR WATER,
surKh hoTho.n se...
FROM THE RED LIPS...
surKh hoTo.n se har ek, phool jawaanee maange,
FROM THE RED LIPS EVERY FLOWER SHOULD BEG FOR YOUTH,
o~~~
dil jinhe.n choom ke....
THE HEART, WHILE KISSING THEM...
dil jinhe.n choom ke, zaKhmo.n kee nishaanee maange,
THE HEART, WHILE KISSING THEM, SHOULD BEG FOR SIGNS OF WOUNDS,
nargisee aankhon me.n, kaajal ke wohee, teer banaa,
DRAW THOSE VERY ARROWS OF KOHL IN THE NARCISSI-EYES
ay musawwir...
O PAINTER!
ay musuwwir mere mehboob kee tasveer banaa...
O PAINTER, DRAW A PICTURE OF MY SWEEETHEART!
main tujhe husn ke, andaaz dikhaaoo.n kaise,
HOW SHOULD I DELINEATE THE ELEGANCE OF BEAUTY?
main tujhe husn ke, andaaz dikhaaoon kaise,
HOW SHOULD I DELINEATE THE ELEGANCE OF BEAUTY?

teraa darr chho.d ke...
LEAVING YOUR THRESHOLD...

LEAVING YOUR THRESHOLD, NOW HOW CAN I GO AT ALL!
jisme uljhaa rahoo.n, din raat voh, zanjeer banaa
THAT IN WHICH I MAY REMAIN ENTANGLED DAY AND NIGHT, DRAW THAT CHAIN
ay, musuwwir...
O PAINTER!
ay musuwwir mere, mehboob kee tasveer banaa...
O PAINTER, DRAW A PICTURE OF MY SWEEETHEART!
aaj yeh aakhree, hasrat bhee, nikal jaane de,
TODAY, LET THIS LAST DESIRE BE FULFILLED TOO,
aaj yeh aakhree, hasrat bhee nikal jaane de,
TODAY, LET THIS LAST DESIRE BE FULFILLED TOO,
uske jalwo.n kee...
OF HER SPLENDOUR...
uske jalwo.n kee jawaa.n aag me.n, jal jaane de,
LET ME BE CONSUMED BY THE YOUTHFUL FIRE OF HER SPLENDOUR,
o~~~
yaa mujhe maut ke,
OR AT DEATH’S...
yaa mujhe maut ke qadmo.n pe, machal jaane de,
OR AT DEATH’S FEET, ALLOW ME TO CONVULSE,
warna jeene ke liye, ab koee, tadbeer banaa,
OTHERWISE COME UP WITH SOME TACTIC NOW IN ORDER TO LIVE
ay musuwwir...
O PAINTER!
ay musuwwir mere mehboob kee, tasveer banaa,
O PAINTER, DRAW A PICTURE OF MY SWEEETHEART!
tujh se bann jaaye....
AFTER YOU’VE DRAWN...
tujh se bann jaaye toh, big.dee huwee, taqdeer banaa,
AFTER YOU’VE DRAWN IT, THEN MEND THE MISFORTUNE
ay musuwwir.
O PAINTER!
