1/4: Momin Khan Momin

tum hamaare

kisi tarah na hue

varna duniya mein

kya nahin hota

you were not mine

in any form

else, what couldn't

have happened in this world

Theme:Love, Passion and Longing (88)

2/4: Momin Khan Momin

thi wasl mein bhi

fikr-e-judaai tamaam shab

vo aaye to bhi neend

na aayi tamaam shab

even in union

the fear of separation all night

when my beloved comes

sleep escapes me all night

Theme:Beauty, Charm & Union (84)

3/4: Momin Khan Momin

kya jaane kya likhaa tha

use izteraab mein

qaasid ki laash aayi

khat ke jawaab mein

in my restlessness

i don’t know what i wrote to her

in reply came

the corpse of the messenger

Theme:Love, Passion and Longing (88)

4/4: Momin Khan Momin

jab kaha maine ki

tum bedaadgar na-aashnaa

be-mohabbat bewafa

begana-e-ahbab ho

when i told her…

you are unfair, act unfamiliar,

with no love, unfaithful,

a strange friend indeed
