aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
nāhaq ham majbūroñ par ye tohmat hai muḳhtārī kī
chāhte haiñ so aap kareñ haiñ ham ko abas badnām kiyā
Us weak, she wrongfully accuses, of taking untold liberty
while she acts as she chooses, and maligns us needlessly
nahaq hum majburon par ye tohmat hai muKHtari ki
chahte hain so aap karen hain hum ko abas badnam kiya
kahūñ kis se maiñ ki kyā hai shab-e-ġham burī balā hai
mujhe kyā burā thā marnā agar ek baar hotā
of gloomy nights alone and sad, to whom should I complain?
Dying just once would not be bad, but each evening again?
kahun kis se main ki kya hai shab-e-gham buri bala hai
mujhe kya bura tha marna agar ek bar hota
dil pāgal hai roz na.ī nādānī kartā hai
aag meñ aag milātā hai phir paanī kartā hai
dil pagal hai roz nai nadani karta hai
aag mein aag milata hai phir pani karta hai
sāmne hai jo use log burā kahte haiñ
jis ko dekhā hī nahīñ us ko ḳhudā kahte haiñ
samne hai jo use log bura kahte hain
jis ko dekha hi nahin us ko KHuda kahte hain
husn ke samajhne ko umr chāhiye jānāñ
do ghaḌī kī chāhat meñ laḌkiyāñ nahīñ khultīñ
husn ke samajhne ko umr chahiye jaanan
do ghaDi ki chahat mein laDkiyan nahin khultin
