subah-dam yuu.N hii fasurdaa ho gayaa
Salaam Machhli Shehri

subah-dam yuu.N hii fasurdaa ho gayaa
ai dil-e-naazuk tujhe kyaa ho gayaa

[fasurdaa=sad]

siinaa-e-baranat se sholaa saa uThaa
Gam-zado.n ke dil kaa naGmaa ho gayaa

[baranat=a musical instrument]

shukriyaa ai gardish-e-jaam-e-sharaab
mai.n bharii mahafil me.n tanhaa ho gayaa

[gardish-e-jaam-e-sharaab=round of drinks]

raat dil ko thaa sahar kaa i.ntazaar
ab ye Gam hai kyo.n saveraa ho gayaa

[sahar=dawn]

bujh ga_ii kuchh is tarah shama-e-"Salaam"
jaise ik biimaar achchhaa ho gayaa
