1/3: khoon

ho kabhi to

sharaab-e-wasl naseeb

peeye jaoon main

khoon hee kab tak

hope i’ll be fortunate to

enjoy the wine of union

for how long do i

keep drinking blood

2/3: khoon

ghazal mein bandish-e-alfaaz

hi nahi kaafi

jigar ka khoon bhi chaahiye

kuch asar ke liye

just a string of words is

not enough to make a poem

you also need a drop

of your heart's blood for it to last

3/3: khoon

aaj ke daur ki tareekh

jise likhni hai

us se keh do ke qalam

khoon mein dubo kar laaye

to the one who will be writing

the history of this period

tell him to bring his pen

dipped in blood
