1/2: tishnagi

tum samandar ki rafaaqat pe

bharosa na karo

tishnagi lab pe sajaaye hue

mar jaaoge

don’t place your faith and rely

rely on the kindness of the ocean

you will die with your lips

decorated by thirst

2/2: tishnagi

shiddat-e-tishnagi mein bhi

ghairat-e-maikashi rahi

us ne jo pher li nazar

main ne bhi jaam rakh diya

even in the intensity of thirst

my dignity of drinking remained

when she turned her face away

i too put down my cup
