1/4: suroor

aghyaar kyun daakhil hain

bazm-e-suroor mein

maana ki yaar kam hain

par itne to kam nahin

why are strangers allowed

in our gathering of joy

yes, our friends are few

but not so few

2/4: suroor

suroor zikr se masti

bayaan se aayegi

woh naam loonga toh khushbu

zubaan se aayegi

intoxication comes with

pleasant thoughts narrated well

if i say that name

fragrance flows off the lips

3/4: suroor

tera imam be-huzoor

teri namaz be-suroor

aisi namaz se guzar

aise imam se guzar

your priest is absent

and your prayer joyless

find your way out of

that priest and that prayer

4/4: suroor

nikhat wahi suroor wahi

dil-kashi wahi

aamad ye aap ki hai

ke jhonka bahaar ka

the same fragrance, same delight

the same charm and allure

was it your arrival or that of

the gentle breeze of spring
