us ne rukh se hata ke baalon ko
rasta de diya ujalon ko

moving her tresses from her face
for the rays of light she made place

jate jate jo mud ke dekh liya
aur uljha diya khayalon ko

turning back she looked while going away
and sent my thoughts into a deeper fray

ek halki si muskurahat se
us ne hal kar diya sawalon ko

when a slight smile on her lips did play
all my questions were answered today

mar gae hum to dekh lena tum
yaad aaenge husn walon ko

if i die, then, 'shafaq' you will see
all the beauties will remember me
