MORE BYKhwaja Meer Dard

    jag meñ aa kar idhar udhar dekhā

    aayā nazar jidhar dekhā

    I came into this world and looked around

    You, manifest, in every place, I found

    jaan se ho ga.e badan ḳhālī

    jis taraf ne aañkh bhar dekhā

    of life and spirit, bodies were devoid

    a gaze intense, wherever you deployed

    naala fariyād aah aur zaarī

    aap se ho sakā so kar dekhā

    wailing, pleading, lamenting and sighing

    the things that I could do / I kept on trying

    un laboñ ne na masīhā.ī

    ham ne sau sau tarah se mar dekhā

    the role of Jesus, those lips did not play

    I tried, in hundred ways, myself to slay

    zor āshiq-mizāj hai koī

    'dard' ko qissa muḳhtasar dekhā

    he's someone who's the deeply ardent sort

    the tale of 'dard' is just this simple, short

    jag mein aa kar idhar udhar dekha

    tu hi aaya nazar jidhar dekha

    I came into this world and looked around

    You, manifest, in every place, I found

    jaan se ho gae badan KHali

    jis taraf tu ne aankh bhar dekha

    of life and spirit, bodies were devoid

    a gaze intense, wherever you deployed

    nala fariyaad aah aur zari

    aap se ho saka so kar dekha

    wailing, pleading, lamenting and sighing

    the things that I could do / I kept on trying

    un labon ne na ki masihai

    hum ne sau sau tarah se mar dekha

    the role of Jesus, those lips did not play

    I tried, in hundred ways, myself to slay

    zor aashiq-mizaj hai koi

    'dard' ko qissa muKHtasar dekha

    he's someone who's the deeply ardent sort

    the tale of 'dard' is just this simple, short
