din mein pariyan kyun aati hain

din mein pariyan kyun aati hain
aisi ghadiyan kyun aati hain
apna ghar aane se pahle
itni galiyan kyun aati hain
bahar kis ka dar lagta hai
ghar mein chidiyan kyun aati hain
din kyun nange ho jate hain
raaten uryan kyun aati hain
sher mein ulti sidhi baaten
bol meri jaan kyun aati hain
'alwi' qabron tak jaane mein
bhul-bhulayyan kyun aati hain

dil-e-nadan tujhe hua kya hai

dil-e-nadan tujhe hua kya hai
aakhir is dard ki dawa kya hai
foolish heart what ails you pray?
can antidotes this ache allay?
hum hain mushtaq aur wo be-zar
ya ilahi ye majra kya hai
i'm ardent and she turns away
lord! what is this game you play?
main bhi munh mein zaban rakhta hun
kash puchho ki muddaa kya hai
i too am capable of speech
just ask me what i want today
jab ki tujh bin nahin koi maujud
phir ye hangama ai khuda kya hai
when but for you, naught else exists
why then o lord this noisy fray?
ye pari-chehra log kaise hain
ghamza o ishwa o ada kya hai


shikan-e-zulf-e-ambarin kyun hai
nigah-e-chashm-e-surma sa kya hai


sabza o gul kahan se aae hain
abr kya chiz hai hawa kya hai


hum ko un se wafa ki hai ummid
jo nahin jaante wafa kya hai
from her i hope for constancy
who knows it not, to my dismay
han bhala kar tera bhala hoga
aur darwesh ki sada kya hai
good you do and goodness reap
what else does the dervish say
jaan tum par nisar karta hun
main nahin jaanta dua kya hai
to you i do bequeath my life
i know not what it is to pray
main ne mana ki kuchh nahin 'ghaalib'
muft hath aae to bura kya hai
ghalib's worthless i accept
but if comes free then why delay?
