1 / 7: duur
juun mauj haath maariye
kya bahr-e-ishq mein
saahil, 'naseer', duur hai
aur dam naheen raha
like a wave, for how long can i
swim in this ocean of love
the shore, 'naseer', is far away
and i have no breath left

2 / 7: duur
duur se aaye thay, saaqi
sun ke maikhaane ko hum
bas taraste hi chale afsos
paimaane ko hum
we have come from afar, o wine-pourer,
hearing of your tavern
and, regretfully, we left
thirsting for a single cup

kuchh naheen ghar duur tera

5 / 7: duur
ghar se masjid hai bahut duur
chalo yuun kar lein
kisi rote hue bachche ko
hansaaya jaaye
the mosque is too far from home
maybe we should try this...
why not make
a few crying children smile?

6 / 7: duur
ek pal ke rukne se
duur ho gayee manzil
sirf hum nahin chalte
raaste bhi chalte hain
when we stopped for a moment
the destination receded away
it isn't just us that's moving
the paths are moving too

husn-e-farogh-e-sham-e-sukhan
duur hai, asad
pahle dil-e-gudaakhta
paida kare koi

lamp of eloquence is far away, ‘asad’
first, let someone create a heart
that is burnt and melted in love
