ik hosh ki saa'at kya kahiye
kuch yaad rahi kuch bhool gaye
when the wine-pourer handed me the cup
when the drinks were flowing freely
what to say of that moment of awareness
some things remembered, some forgotten

i found joy even in worldly sorrows
even in solitude

bichhaaya hai qamar ne
chaandni ka farsh mehfil mein
whose radiant, beautiful face
has arrived in this get-together
the moon has spread a carpet
of moonlight in this gathering

kya noor tha ki
shama ko parvaana kar diya
when that evening she came,
unveiled, to the gathering
oh, what a glow,
that turned the flame into a moth
