2 / 5: shama
ye roshni tere kamre
mein khud nahi aayi
shama ka jism pighalne
ke baad aayi
this light hasn’t come into
your room all by itself
it has come after burning
the body of a candle

3 / 5: shama
hoti kahan hai dil se judaa
dil ki aarzoo
jaata kahan hai shama ko
parvaana chhoD kar
where does the heart
separate from its own desires?
where does the moth go
leaving the flame behind?

4 / 5: shama
woh shab ko behijaab
jo mehfil mein aa gaya
kya noor tha ki
shama ko parvaana kar diya
when that evening she came,
unveiled, to the gathering
oh, what a glow…
that turned the flame into a moth
