1/2: Qamar Jalalvi

dabaa ke qabr mein

sab chal diye dua na salaam

zara si der mein

kya ho gaya zamaane ko

after burying me, they all walked away

without a greeting or a prayer

what has happened to the world

in such a short time

2/2: Qamar Jalalvi

zabt karta huun to

ghuThta hai qafas mein mera dam

aah karta huun to

sayyaad khafa hota hai

if i restrain myself and submit

i suffocate in this cage

if i sigh and complain

my captor becomes irate
