allah agar taufeeq na de
insaan ke bas ka kaam nahin
faizaan-e-mohabbat aam sahi
irfaan-e-mohabbat aam nahin
if god doesn’t give guidance
man is not competent
grace of love is common
but not love’s enlightenment

ranj se khugar hua insaan to
miT jaata hai ranj
mushkilein mujh par paDi itni ke
aasaan ho gayee

that it has become easy to bear them

sarak gaya jab uske rukh se
pardaa achaanak
farishte bhi kehne lage

insaan ki khwahishon ki
koi inteha nahi
do gaz zameen bhi chahiye

desire, aspiration
ending, finale
human

aqaa’ed vahm hai mazhab
khayaal-e-khaam hai saaqi
azal se zehn-e-insaan
basta-e-auhaam hai saaqi
religion but a fanciful belief
a string of delusions
forever the human mind has been
hostage to a bundle of superstitions
