1 / 6: talab
darwaaza go khula hai
ijaabat ka, par 'hasan'
ham kis kis aarzoo ko
khuda se talab karein
the door to divine approval
maybe open, 'hasan'
bu which of my countless wishes
should i ask be granted?

2 / 6: talab
dukh yeh naheen ke
andheron se sulh ki hum ne
malaal yeh hai ke
ab subh ki talab bhi naheen
it is not coming to terms
with the night that is distressing
but the anguish of no longer
wishing for a new dawn

3 / 6: talab
mashrab nahin ye mera ki
poojoon buuton ko main
shauq-e-talab ne dil ko
sanam-khaana kar diya
my religion is not
one of worshiping idols
my passion for seeking has
turned my heart into a temple

4 / 6: talab
talaash-e-talab mein woh lazzat mili hai
dua kar raha hoon ke manzil na aaye
raah-e-aashiqi ka taqaaza yehi hai ke
kashti chale par saahil na aaye
i found so much joy in the seeking of my desire
i am praying the destination never arrives
the demand of the path of love is just this:
boat keeps sailing, but shore is never reached

5 / 6: talab
dil apni talab mein saadiq tha
ghabra ke suu-e-matloob gaya
dariya se ye moti nikla tha
dariya hi mein ja kar Doob gaya
heart was loyal to its desire
anxious, went to see its beloved
the pearl came out of the river
but drowned in the river itself

6 / 6: talab
aashiqui sabr-talab
aur tamanna betaab
dil ka kya rang karuun
khoon-e-jigar hote tak
love demands patience
but desire is restless
how shall i color my heart
until it is finally vanquished
