Sher of Azad Ansari
ham ko na mil sakā to faqat ik sukūn-e-dil
ai zindagī vagarna zamāne meñ kyā na thā
hum ko na mil saka to faqat ek sukun-e-dil
ai zindagi wagarna zamane mein kya na tha
dīdār kī talab ke tarīqoñ se be-ḳhabar
dīdār kī talab hai to pahle nigāh maañg
ignorant of mores when seeking visions bright
if you want the vision, you first need the sight
didar ki talab ke tariqon se be-KHabar
didar ki talab hai to pahle nigah mang
ignorant of mores when seeking visions bright
if you want the vision, you first need the sight
sazā.eñ to har haal meñ lāzmī thiiñ
ḳhatā.eñ na kar ke pashemāniyāñ haiñ
sazaen to har haal mein lazmi thin
KHataen na kar ke pashemaniyan hain
vo kāfir-nigāheñ ḳhudā kī panāh
jidhar phir ga.iiñ faisla ho gayā
those faithless eyes, lord's mercy abide!
wherever they turn, they deem to decide
wo kafir-nigahen KHuda ki panah
jidhar phir gain faisla ho gaya
those faithless eyes, lord's mercy abide!
wherever they turn, they deem to decide

banda-parvar maiñ vo banda huuñ ki bahr-e-bandagī
jis ke aage sar jhukā dūñgā ḳhudā ho jā.egā
so deep is my devotion, for this piety of mine
if I bow to anyone, he would become divine
banda-parwar main wo banda hun ki bahr-e-bandagi
jis ke aage sar jhuka dunga KHuda ho jaega
so deep is my devotion, for this piety of mine
if I bow to anyone, he would become divine

agar kār-e-ulfat ko mushkil samajh luuñ
to kyā tark-e-ulfat meñ āsāniyāñ haiñ
agar kar-e-ulfat ko mushkil samajh lun
to kya tark-e-ulfat mein aasaniyan hain
talab-e-āshiq-e-sādiq meñ asar hotā hai
go zarā der meñ hotā hai magar hotā hai
talab-e-ashiq-e-sadiq mein asar hota hai
go zara der mein hota hai magar hota hai
