main nazar se pi raha hun ye saman badal na jae
na jhukao tum nigahen kahin raat dhal na jae

i am feasting from thine eyes, pray let this aspect be
lower not your eyes my love, or else this night may flee

mere ashk bhi hain is mein ye sharab ubal na jae
mera jam chhune wale tera hath jal na jae

my tears too this does contain,this wine may start to boil
be careful for my goblet burns with rare intensity

abhi raat kuchh hai baqi na utha naqab saqi
tera rind girte girte kahin phir sambhal na jae

as yet the night does linger on do not remove your veil
lest your besotten follower re-gains stability

meri zindagi ke malik mere dil pe hath rakhna
tere aane ki khushi mein mera dam nikal na jae

place your hand upon my heart, o master of my life
lest the joy of your approach becomes the end of me

mujhe phunkne se pahle mera dil nikal lena
ye kisi ki hai amanat mere sath jal na jae

please remove my heart before i am consigned to flames
as it belongs to someone else it should not burn with me
