aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
dil ke phaphūle jal uThe siine ke daaġh se
is ghar ko aag lag ga.ī ghar ke charāġh se
this hearts blisters are inflamed by its own desire
by its own lamp,alas, this house is set afire
dil ke phaphule jal uThe sine ke dagh se
is ghar ko aag lag gai ghar ke charagh se
bandish-e-alfāz jaḌne se nigūñ ke kam nahīñ
shā.erī bhī kaam hai 'ātish' murassa-sāz kā
bandish-e-alfaz jaDne se nigun ke kam nahin
shaeri bhi kaam hai 'atish' murassa-saz ka
achchhā ḳhāsā baiThe baiThe gum ho jaatā huuñ
ab maiñ aksar maiñ nahīñ rahtā tum ho jaatā huuñ
achchha KHasa baiThe baiThe gum ho jata hun
ab main aksar main nahin rahta tum ho jata hun
ġham se bikhrā na pā.emāl huā
maiñ to ġham se hī be-misāl huā
gham se bikhra na paemal hua
main to gham se hi be-misal hua
andāz apnā dekhte haiñ aa.ine meñ vo
aur ye bhī dekhte haiñ koī dekhtā na ho
looking in the mirror she sees her savoir-faire
and also looks to see no one is peeping there
andaz apna dekhte hain aaine mein wo
aur ye bhi dekhte hain koi dekhta na ho
