ho ruuh ke taain
jism se kis tarah mohabbat?
taair ko qafas se bhi
kahin ho hai mohabbat?
can the spirit truly
fall in love with the body?
can a bird ever feel
love for its own prison?

warna duniya mein

you were not mine
in any form
else, what couldn't
have happened in this world

zabaan hamaari na samjha
yahaan koi 'majrooh'
hum ajnabi ki tarah
apne hi watan mein rahe
no one here, ‘majrooh’,
understands what i say
i remain a stranger
in my own land

kya badan hoga ki jis ke
kholte jaame ka band
barg-e-gul ki tarah
har naakhun mo'attar ho gaya

when i untie the drawstrings
like the petals of a flower
my nails smell of perfume too

poocha jo un se
chaand nikalta hai kis tarah
zulfon ko rukh pe Daal ke
jhatka diya ki yuun

from where does the moon rise
she covered her face with curls
and tossed them to say…here

zindagi kam paDhe
pardesi ka khat hai 'ibrat'
ye kisi tarah paDha jaye
na samjha jaye
life is like a little-read letter
of a foreigner, 'ibrat'
however you read it,
you can't make sense of it

khwaabon ki tarah aanaa
khushbu ki tarah jaana
mumkin hi nahi lagta
ai dost, tujhe paanaa
arriving like a dream, and
leaving with fragrance behind
it seems impossible, my friend,
to find someone like you

kis kis tarah ki dil mein
guzarti hai hasratein
hai wasl se zyaada
mazaa intezaar ka
so many kinds of unmet desires
keep coursing through the heart
but there is more fun in the waiting
than there is in the getting

haadse hai ke
log rahte hain
apne hi ghar mein
ajnabi ki tarah
the tragedy is that
people stay
in their own homes
as strangers

jab zulm-o-sitam ke
koh-e-garan
rooyi ki tarah uD jaayenge
hum dekhenge
when the mighty mountains
of tyranny and oppression
fly away like clumps of cotton
we shall see

ai raat, mujhe maa ki tarah
god mein le le

like my mother
the toil and troubles of the day
have broken my body
