1/7: rahbar

'majrooh' qaafile ki mere

daastaan ye hai

rahbar ne mil ke luuT liya

raahzan ke saath

of our caravans, majrooh,

the story is this

the ruler has looted us

joining hands with the robber

2/7: rahbar

rahbar raahzan na ban jaaye

kahin is soch mein

chup khada hoon bhool kar

raaste mein manzil ka pata

hope the guide doesn’t

turn a robber

as i stand alone in the path

forgetting my destination

3/7: rahbar

raahzan hai mera rahbar

munsif hai mera qaatil

sehlu toh qayaamat hai

kehdu toh bhagaawat hai

the bandit is my guide

the judge is my assassin

if i endure, calamity

if i speak out, mutiny

4/7: rahbar

mere rahbar mujhko

gumrah kar de

suna hai ke manzil

qareeb aa gayi hai

my guide,

lead me astray

heard that my destination

has drawn closer

5/7: rahbar

talaash chalta hoon thoDi door

har ik tez rau ke saath

pehchaanta naheen hoon abhee

rahbar ko main

i go searching for a short while

with whoever is whizzing past

i am yet to find someone

a guide to show the way

6/7: rahbar

aye rahbar-e-kaamil chalne

tayyaar to hoon par yaad rahe

us waqt mujhay bhatka dena

jab saamne manzil aa jaaye

oh perfect guide, i am on the

path to the beloved, but please

lead me astray

when the destination is near

Theme:Quest, Journey & Destination (44)

7/7: rahbar

shauq-e-manzil humsafar hai

jazba-e-dil rahbar

mujh pe khud bhi khul naheen paata

kidhar jaata hoon main

passion for destination as companion

emotion of the heart as my guide

even i myself cannot fathom

where i am headed
