ahl-e-ulfat ke hawalon pe hansi aati hai

Sudarshan Faakir

ahl-e-ulfat ke hawalon pe hansi aati hai

Sudarshan Faakir

ahl-e-ulfat ke havāloñ pe hañsī aatī hai

lailā majnūñ misāloñ pe hañsī aatī hai

I scoff at stories of sincerity

I mock the models of fidelity

jab bhī takmīl-e-mohabbat ḳhayāl aatā hai

mujh ko apne ḳhayāloñ pe hañsī aatī hai

when thoughts of love's fulfillment arise

my thoughts are a source of mirth to me

log apne liye auroñ meñ vafā DhūñDte haiñ

un vafā DhūñDne vāloñ pe hañsī aatī hai

By those hapless seekers I'm amused

That in others, look for constancy

dekhne vaalo tabassum ko karam mat samjho

unheñ to dekhne vāloñ pe hañsī aatī hai

Favours, do not think her smiles to be

she mocks them all who look on hopefully

chāñdnī raat mohabbat meñ hasīñ thī 'fākir'

ab to bīmār ujāloñ pe hañsī aatī hai

Starry nights, in love, brought me joy

I now just smile at daylight's frailty

ahl-e-ulfat ke hawalon pe hansi aati hai

laila majnun ki misalon pe hansi aati hai

I scoff at stories of sincerity

I mock the models of fidelity

jab bhi takmil-e-mohabbat ka KHayal aata hai

mujh ko apne hi KHayalon pe hansi aati hai

when thoughts of love's fulfillment arise

my thoughts are a source of mirth to me

log apne liye auron mein wafa DhunDte hain

un wafa DhunDne walon pe hansi aati hai

By those hapless seekers I'm amused

That in others, look for constancy

dekhne walo tabassum ko karam mat samjho

unhen to dekhne walon pe hansi aati hai

Favours, do not think her smiles to be

she mocks them all who look on hopefully

chandni raat mohabbat mein hasin thi 'fakir'

ab to bimar ujalon pe hansi aati hai

Starry nights, in love, brought me joy

I now just smile at daylight's frailty
