A
Thrilled
Beautiful rose said
To another shining gorgeous rose*
Breathing your perfume fills the air of my existence
Now come stand by my side with your silent ecstasy*
And comfort the glory of
My passionate
Pose

More Nain Piya
Sang Laag Rahe

Beloved is within my eyes
May this affect remain

Mohe Hosh Nahi*
Ab Tann Mann Ka

I have no consciousness
Over my body and soul

Mohe Sudh Budh Sagri Bhool Gayee
Mukh Daikh Ke Apne Sajan Ka

Presence of my mind is no longer
O' after a sight of my sweetheart’s face

— Translated by Jamil Hussain, Sung by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan

Khanjar Hain Teri Aankhein
Talwaar Hain Teri Aankhein
Zinda Na Rehne Dengi
Ae Yaar Teri Aankhein

Your eyes are like a dagger
Your eyes are like a sword
They will not let me live
O' beloved eyes of yours

Ae Nargis-e-Mastaana
Allah Tujhe Rakhe
Rehti Hain Tasavvur Mein
Har Baar Teri Aankhein

O' possessor of drunk eyes
God keep you in His preserve
Enduring within my imaginations
O’ forever are eyes of yours

Yeh Bolti Aankhein
Bhi Afsaane Sunaati Hain
Rakhti Hain Zuban Jaise
Ae Yar Teri Aankhein

These talkative eyes
Speak of many tales
As if, they have a voice of their own
O' beloved eyes of yours

Humne Teri Aankoon Mein
Allah Ko Dekha Hai
Iss Par Teri Aankein
Uss Par Teri Aankein

Within your eyes
I have seen the Lord
In every direction
O’ are eyes of yours

Chehre Pe To Ghussa Hai
Aankhoon Mein Muhabbat Hai
Karti Hain Mere Dilbar
Iqraar Teri Aankhein*

On the face anger is exposed
But love is within the eyes of yours
Revealing O’ sweetheart
Unity, are eyes of yours

— Translated by Jamil Hussain, Sung by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
