1 / 5: Fana Bulandshahri
mashrab nahin ye mera ki
poojoon buuton ko main
shauq-e-talab ne dil ko
sanam-khaana kar diya
my religion is not
one of worshiping idols
my passion for seeking has
turned my heart into a temple

2 / 5: Fana Bulandshahri
ai 'fana' shukr hai aaj baad-e-fana
us ne rakh li mere pyar ki aabru
apne haathon se us ne meri qabr pe
chadar-e-gul chadhai…maza aa gaya
oh ‘fana’, am glad on this day of death
she came to respect and honor my love
with her own hands she spread flowers
on my graveyard…’twas so thrilling

mere rashk-e-qamar tu ne pehli nazar
jab nazar se milaayi…maza aa gaya
barq si gir gayi kaam hi kar gayi
aag aisi lagaayi…maza aa gaya
oh my envy-of-the-moon…when our
eyes met the first time…’twas thrilling
lightning came down and did its job
it lit a fire such that…’twas so thrilling

duniya ke har khayaal se
begaana kar diya
husn-e-khayaal-e-yaar ne
deewaana kar diya
it made me indifferent
to every thought of the world
beauty of the thoughts of my beloved
has driven me crazy indeed

aye fana, shukar hai aaj baad-e-fana
us ne rakh li mere pyaar ki aabru
apne haathon se usne meri qabr par
chaadar-e-gul chaDaayi maza aa gaya
oh fana, am thankful that after my death
she herself came to honor my love
with her own hands she spread flowers
on my grave…it was so delightful
