aur ko_ii dam kii hai mehamaa.N guzar jaayegii raat


aur ko_ii dam kii hai mehamaa.N guzar jaayegii raat
Dhalate Dhalate aap apanii maut mar jaayegii raat

[ko_ii = (kuchh) = some/few]

zindagii me.n aur bhii kuchh zahar bhar jaayegii raat
ab agar Thaharii rag-o-pai me.n utar jaayegii raat

hai ufaq se ek sang-e-aafataab aane kii der
TuuT kar maanind-e-aa_iinaa bikhar jaayegii raat

[ufaq = horizon; sang = stone; aafataab = Sun]
[maanind = like/similar to]

ham to jaane kab se hai.n aavaaraa-e-zulmat magar
tum Thahar jaao to pal bhar me.n guzar jaayegii raat 

[zulmat = darkness]

raat kaa anjaam bhii maaluum hai mujh ko 'Suroor'
laakh apanii had se guzare taa-sahar jaayegii raat

[anjaam = result; taa-sahar = till morning]
