1 / 5: Zehra Nigaah
tum se haasil hua ik
gehre samundar ka sukuut
aur har mauj se
laDna bhi tumhi se seekha
from you i gained
the calm of a deep ocean
and to fight against every wave
i learned from you too

2 / 5: Zehra Nigaah
dekhte dekhte
ik ghar ke rahne vaale
apne apne
kaanon mein bat jaate hain
just like that
those living in the same home
become isolated
in their own private spaces

chhoti si baat pe khush hona
mujhe aata tha
par badi baat pe chup rahna
tumhi se seekha
i figured out myself
to be happy with little things
but to be quiet about big things
i learned from you

4 / 5: Zehra Nigaah
waqt ki aandhi mein bhi
roshni ka diya jalaata raha
mera qalam mera saathi
mera humraaz banta raha
even during the storms of time
i kept lighting the lamp of brightness
my pen remained my friend,
my confidant all through

5 / 5: Zehra Nigaah
kahaan ke ishq-o-mohabbat
kidhar ke hijr-o-visaal
abhi to log taraste hain
zindagi ke liye
where this love and passion
where this separation and union
right now, people just
long for life
