siine me.n un ke jalve chhupaaye huye to hai.n


siine me.n un ke jalve chhupaaye huye to hai.n 
ham apane dil ko tuur banaaye huye to hai.n 

[tuur=the mountain on which Moses had his vision] 

taasiir-e-jazb-e-shauq dikhaaye huye to hai.n 
ham teraa har hijaab uThaaye huye to hai.n 

[taasiir=effect/result; jazbaa=emotion; hijaab=veil] 

haa.N vo kyaa huaa vo hausalaa-e-diid ahal-e-dil 
dekho na vo naqaab uThaaye huye to hai.n 

[hausalaa-e-diid=courage to see/view] 

tere gunaaha_aar gunaah_gaar hii sahii
tere karam kii aas lagaaye huye to hai.n 

allaah re qaamayaabii-e-aavaaragaan-e-ishq
Khud gum huye to kyaa use paaye huye to hai.n 

ye tujh ko iKhtiyaar hai taasiir de na de
dast-e-duaa ham aaj uThaaye huye to hai.n 

[iKhtiyaar=control; taasiir=result; dast-e-duaa=hands raised in prayer] 

miTate huo.n ko dekh ke kyo.n ro na de.n 'Majaz'
aaKhir kisii ke ham bhii miTaaye huye to hai.n
