1/6: zamaana

gham-e-zamaana ne

majboor kar diya warna

ye aarzoo thi ki

bas teri aarzoo karte

the sorrows of the world

have made me helpless

else, my only desire

was to desire only you

Theme:Loneliness, Solitude & Grief (92)

2/6: zamaana

dabaa ke qabr mein

sab chal diye dua na salaam

zara si der mein

kya ho gaya zamaane ko

after burying me, they all walked away

without a greeting or a prayer

what has happened to the world

in such a short time

Theme:Life, Living & Dying (104)

3/6: zamaana

hazaar baar zamaana

idhar se guzra hai

nayi nayi si hai kuchh

teri raahguzar phir bhi

a thousand times has

the world passed by here

even then, your (love’s) path

seems new every time

Theme:Love, Passion and Longing (88)

4/6: zamaana

chupke chupke raat din

aansu bahaana yaad hai

woh zamaana yaad hai

To fill

i still remember

To fill

i still remember

To fill

Theme:Miscellany (44)

5/6: zamaana

apni taraf to main bhi

naheen huun abhi talak

aur us taraf tamaam

zamaana usi ka hai

until now, even i wasn’t

on my own side

and on that side

the whole world was her’s

Theme:Friends, Family & Community (108)

6/6: zamaana

zamaana aql ko samjha hua hai

mishal-e-raah

kise khabar ki junoon bhi hai

saahib-e-idraak

the world always considered

intellect to be the guiding light

who knew that passion

can also inform and enlighten

Theme:Creativity, Philosophy & Enlightenment (30)
