aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
irāde bāñdhtā huuñ sochtā huuñ toḌ detā huuñ
kahīñ aisā na ho jaa.e kahīñ vaisā na ho jaa.e
irade bandhta hun sochta hun toD deta hun
kahin aisa na ho jae kahin waisa na ho jae
ye mohabbat kī kahānī nahīñ martī lekin
log kirdār nibhāte hue mar jaate haiñ
ye mohabbat ki kahani nahin marti lekin
log kirdar nibhate hue mar jate hain
yā to jo nā-fahm haiñ vo bolte haiñ in dinoñ
yā jinheñ ḳhāmosh rahne kī sazā ma.alūm hai
ya to jo na-fahm hain wo bolte hain in dinon
ya jinhen KHamosh rahne ki saza malum hai
kah rahā hai shor-e-dariyā se samundar kā sukūt
jis kā jitnā zarf hai utnā hī vo ḳhāmosh hai
the river's raging is advised by the tranquil sea
the greater power you possess, the quieter you be
kah raha hai shor-e-dariya se samundar ka sukut
jis ka jitna zarf hai utna hi wo KHamosh hai
is ālam-e-vīrāñ meñ kyā anjuman-ārā.ī
do roz kī mahfil hai ik umr kī tanhā.ī
is aalam-e-viran mein kya anjuman-arai
do roz ki mahfil hai ek umr ki tanhai
