kya noor tha ki
shama ko parvaana kar diya

unveiled, to the gathering
oh, what a glow,
that turned the flame into a moth

a moon with me
and another in front

rind ke rind rahe
haath se jannat na gayi
indulged in wine by night,
sought forgiveness by dawn
i remained a wine-lover
but did not lose paradise

peeta hoon
roz-e-abr-o-shab-e-mahtaab mein

i enjoy a drink
on cloudy days and moon-filled nights
