Freeze, freeze thou bitter sky,
That does not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As a friend remembered not.

Most friendship if feigning, most loving mere folly:

WHERE WILL FATE LEAD US?


maaloom nahee.n....
DON’T KNOW...


hairat se naa tum dekho mujh ko,
DON’T WATCH ME IN AMAZEMENT


aur haal bhee meraa mat poochho,
AND DON’T EVEN ASK ME ABOUT MY STATE,


hairat se naa tum dekho mujh ko,
DON’T WATCH ME IN AMAZEMENT


aur haal bhee meraa mat poochho,
AND DON’T EVEN ASK ME ABOUT MY STATE,


ab meree tabeeyat baato.n se,
BY MEANS OF PARLEYS, MY TEMPERAMENT NOW


kuchh bhee na behelne paayegee,
WON’T BE AMUSED IN THE LEAST,


lekin hai yaqee.n, aayegee manzil,
BUT I’M SURE THE DESTINATION WILL ARRIVE,


aayegee manzil
THE DESTINATION WILL ARRIVE,


taqdeer kahaa.n le jaayegee,
WHERE WILL FATE LEAD US?


maaloom nahee.n
DON’T KNOW,


lekin hai yaqee.n, aayegee manzil,
BUT I’M SURE THE DESTINATION WILL ARRIVE,


aayegee manzil
THE DESTINATION WILL ARRIVE,


taqdeer kahaa.n le jaayegee,
WHERE WILL FATE LEAD US?


maaloom nahee.n.
DON’T KNOW.


NASIR.
