    lab bayābāñ, bose be-jāñ

    kaun uljhan ko suljhāte haiñ ham?

    jism ye kār-gāheñ

    jin haizam aap ban jaate haiñ ham!

    nīm-shab aur shahr-e-ḳhvāb-ālūdā, ham-sā.e

    ki jaise duzd-e-shab-gardāñ koii!

    shaam se the hasratoñ ke banda-e-be-dām ham

    rahe the jaam par har jaam ham

    ye samajh kar jur.a-e-pinhāñ koī

    shāyad āḳhir ibtidā-e-rāz iimā bane!

    matlab āsāñ harf be-ma.anī

    tabassum ke hisābī zāviye

    matn ke sab hāshiye

    jin se aish-ḳhām ke naqsh-e-riyā bante rahe!

    aur āḳhir buad jismoñ meñ sar-e-mū bhī na thā

    jab diloñ ke darmiyāñ haa.il the sañgīñ fāsle

    qurb-e-chashm-o-gosh se ham kaun uljhan ko suljhāte rahe!

    kaun uljhan ko suljhāte haiñ ham?

    shaam ko jab apnī ġham-gāhoñ se duzdānā nikal aate haiñ ham?

    zavāl-e-umr dev-e-subuk-pā rū-ba-rū

    anā ke dast o ko vus.atoñ aarzū

    kaun uljhan ko suljhāte haiñ ham?

    Which Mystery Do We Unravel ?

    Lips a wilderness, kisses lifeless

    Which mystery do we unravel?

    We ourselves become the fuel

    For these workshops of the body

    Midnight in a dream-stained city, we are shadows

    Wandering like thieves through night

    Since evening we've been free

    Slaves of desire, drinking

    Glass after glass, thinking

    Some hidden drop might

    Signal at last the first secret

    Intention easy, words meaningless

    Contrived curves of smiles

    All the notes of the text

    Outlining

    Visions of unripe pleasures

    Between our bodies not a hair's space

    Between our hearts a falling chasm

    With eyes and ears close, which mystery did we unravel?

    Which mystery do we unravel

    When at night we steal from our gloomy caves?

    Is Life seeking new straits

    Does the swift god of senility stand over us

    Or could it be an ego's ambition ?

    Which mystery do we unravel?

    lab bayaban, bose be-jaan

    kaun si uljhan ko suljhate hain ham?

    jism ki ye kar-gahen

    jin ka haizam aap ban jate hain ham!

    nim-shab aur shahr-e-KHwab-aluda, ham-sae

    ki jaise duzd-e-shab-gardan koi!

    sham se the hasraton ke banda-e-be-dam hum

    pi rahe the jam par har jam hum

    ye samajh kar jura-e-pinhan koi

    shayad aaKHir ibtida-e-raaz ka ima bane!

    matlab aasan harf be-mani

    tabassum ke hisabi zawiye

    matn ke sab hashiye

    jin se aish-KHam ke naqsh-e-riya bante rahe!

    aur aaKHir buad jismon mein sar-e-mu bhi na tha

    jab dilon ke darmiyan hail the sangin fasle

    qurb-e-chashm-o-gosh se hum kaun si uljhan ko suljhate rahe!

    kaun si uljhan ko suljhate hain ham?

    sham ko jab apni gham-gahon se duzdana nikal aate hain ham?

    ya zawal-e-umr ka dew-e-subuk-pa ru-ba-ru

    ya ana ke dast o pa ko wusaton ki aarzu

    kaun si uljhan ko suljhate hain ham?
