ishq mein ghairat-e-jazbaat ne rone na diya
ishq meñ ġhairat-e-jazbāt ne rone na diyā
varna kyā baat thī kis baat ne rone na diyā
in love I could not weep fearing loss of dignity
else for my not crying what reason could there be
aap kahte the ki rone se na badleñge nasīb
umr bhar aap kī is baat ne rone na diyā
you had said that weeping would alter no one's fate
coz of this advice of yours I couldn't cry to date
rone vāloñ se kaho un kā bhī ronā ro leñ
jin ko majbūri-e-hālāt ne rone na diyā
tell those who wish to grieve for them I will lament
whom cruel compulsions from crying did prevent
tujh se mil kar hameñ ronā thā bahut ronā thā
tañgi-e-vaqt-e-mulāqāt ne rone na diyā
on meeting you I wanted to cry and cry and cry
but due to lack of time this urge I couldn't satisfy
ek do roz kā sadma ho to ro leñ 'fākir'
ham ko har roz ke sadmāt ne rone na diyā
if it were but for a day or two I would have cried
but due to daily suffering this too was thus denied
ishq mein ghairat-e-jazbaat ne rone na diya
warna kya baat thi kis baat ne rone na diya
in love I could not weep fearing loss of dignity
else for my not crying what reason could there be
aap kahte the ki rone se na badlenge nasib
umr bhar aap ki is baat ne rone na diya
you had said that weeping would alter no one's fate
coz of this advice of yours I couldn't cry to date
rone walon se kaho un ka bhi rona ro len
jin ko majburi-e-haalat ne rone na diya
tell those who wish to grieve for them I will lament
whom cruel compulsions from crying did prevent
tujh se mil kar hamein rona tha bahut rona tha
tangi-e-waqt-e-mulaqat ne rone na diya
on meeting you I wanted to cry and cry and cry
but due to lack of time this urge I couldn't satisfy
ek do roz ka sadma ho to ro len 'fakir'
hum ko har roz ke sadmat ne rone na diya
if it were but for a day or two I would have cried
but due to daily suffering this too was thus denied
