1 / 4: Muztar Khairabadi
na kisi ki aankh ka noor huun
na kisi ke dil ka qaraar huun
jo kisi ke kaam na aa sakey
main vo ek musht-e-gubaar huun
am not the light of anyone’s eyes
nor offer comfort to any heart
could not be of value to anyone
was just a handful of dust

ilaaj-e-dard-e-dil tum se maseehaa
ho naheen sakta
tum achchha kar naheen sakte
main achchha ho naheen saktaa
the cure for my heartache
oh messiah, is not possible
you can't help me
nor can i get better

3 / 4: Muztar Khairabadi
aseer-e-panja-e-ahd-e-shabaab
kar ke mujhe
kahaan gaya mera bachpan
kharaab kar ke mujhe
having made me a captive
of the age of youth
where has my childhood gone
ruining me thus

bose apne
aariz-e-gulfaam ke
laa mujhe deejiye
aapke kis kaam ke
kisses of your
rose-hued cheeks
give them to me
for what use are they to you?
