Khuda ke dar ke siwa agar karni ** bandagi,
Mera sir jhuke mehboob ke aage jo hai meri zindagi.

Ibadat karti hu is sachhi mohabbat ki,
Mere humsafar ke bin ye jaan hai aduri si.

Chand roz chamakar intrane laga,
Mere chand ki tasveer dekh khomosh ** gaya.

Ajeeb si betaabi hai tere bina,
Tujh bin har ek pal ye dil ne gina.

Ashq behne lagte hain yaara,
Ek pal ki duri bhi nahi hai gavara.

Log jaate hain mandir masjid khuda ko talaashne,
Apna khuda ko khoj liya humsafar mein humne.

Jaam tou unke liye hai Jinhe nasha nahi hota,
Ishq ke rang is qadar hum par hai chadha.

Aapki yaadon ke nashe mein har lamha doobe rehte,
Is dil ki har dadhkan mein sirf mere mahadev baithe.

Mera khuda hai mere humsafar,
Humesha saath hai aapke chahe kaise ** manzar.

Karwate jitni marzi badal le aye zindagi,
Haskar dard chupane ki karigiri mashoor hai meri.

Par jab aap saamne aate,
Hum sudh budh ko baith te.

Har baat tumse hi befikra hokar aapse keh dete,
Ek aap hi tou hai duniya mein jo humein samajhte.

Dil ke har jazbaat ko bin kahe hi padh lete,
Aapse ek baat hum kehna chahte.

Kabhi udaas na hona aap humsesha aapke hain saath,
Majbooti se pakda hai humne aapka haath.

Saamne na sahi kahin aas-pass hi hu
Rooh se judi hai hamari aabru.

Kuch na kar payenge meelon dur ke faasle,
Palkein band kar dekhiye aapke dil mein baithe.

Aasmaan se farishta utarkar,
Dil mein sama gaye aakar.

Mohabbat hai hamari ibadat,
Aapke aane se mili dharti par jannat.

Main Talkhi-e-Hayat Se Ghabra Ke Pi Gaya
Gham Ki Siyah Raat Se Ghabra Ke Pi Gaya

With the worry from bitterness of life, I drank
With the grief of my darkest night, I drank


Itni Daqiq Shai Koi Kaise Samajh Sake
Yazdan Ke Vaqiat Se Ghabra Ke Pi Gaya

Such delicate substance, how can one comprehend?
With the fear of merciful moment, I drank


Chhalke Hue The Jaam Pareshan Thi Zulf-e-Yaar
Kuchh Aise Hadsat Se Ghabra Ke Pi Gaya

Overflowing cups and beloved’s anxious tresses
With the concern for such calamities, I drank


Main Aadmi Huun Koi Farishta Nahi Huzur
Main Aaj Apni Zaat Se Ghabra Ke Pi Gaya

Human I am and no angel O’ respected
Today, with the vigilance of my own being, I drank


Duniya-e-Hadsat Hai Ik Dardnak Giit
Duniya-e-Hadsat Se Ghabra Ke Pi Gaya

World of incidents is an agonising song
With the discomfort of this world of incidents, I drank
  

Kante To Khair Kante Hain Is Ka Gila Hi Kya
Phulon Ki Vardat Se Ghabra Ke Pi Gaya

Thorns are yet thorns and there is no complaint
With the scare from crimes of flowers, I drank


Saghar Vo Kah Rahe The Ki Pi Lijiye Huzur
Un Ki Guzarishat Se Ghabra Ke Pi Gaya*

Saghar they said drink O’ respected
And with the care for their wishes, I drank

Teri Payal Agar Chhanak Jaye
Gardish-e-Asmaan Titthak Jaye

If your anklets, made a sound
Spinning of heavens, would pause

Tere Hansne Ki Kaifiyat Tauba
Jaise Bijli Chamak Chamak Jaye

Nature of your laughter, God forbid!
Like bolts and flashes, lightning draws

Teri Gardan Ka Tazkira Sun Kar
Jo Surahi Hai Woh Chhalak Jaye

Hearing, portrayal of your neck
Even a goglet, overflows

Le Agar Jhoom Kar Tu Angrai
Zindagi Daar Par Latak Jaye

Twirling, if you pandiculate
Existence, would hang by the ropes

Choor Hai Aise Paakpan Tera
Jaise Das Das Ke Saamp Thak Jaye

Broken to atoms is your innocence
Like once bitten fatigue a snake shows

Teri Ankhoon Ko Dekh Paiye Agar
Jo Farishta ** Woh Bahak Jaye*

If one wins to see your eyes
Even an angelic, deluded grows

Oo panchhi le jaa meri chitti us jahan mein,

Jaha rakha hai meri maa ko us uparwale ne.



Pahuchana mera ye paigaam un dono khuda ko,

Ek meri maa jo jaan se pyaari hai mujhko.



Aur ek bhagwaan ko jinhone meri jaan apne pass bula li,

Meri maa unke pass hain wo bhi ** gye bhagyashaali.



Shukriya hai maa aapka jo aapne un ishwar se keh ke,

Aapke jaisi parwaah karne wala bhej diya zindagi mein.



Humari zindagi mein aake zindagi bn gye hain wo khuda ka farishta,

Dil se dil ka rooh se rooh ka hai unse ye khubsurat rishta.



Behad khushnaseeb hai aapki beti jo mila aisa jeevan saathi,

Wo mile tou in dadhkano ko jeene ki wajah mili.



Apni rehmat humesha banaye rehna,

Unhe har pal mehfooz rakhna.



Unki khushi se barkaraar hai humari khushi,

Unka mukhda tou hai misaal saadgi ki.



Dil hai unka pavan pavitra jaise ** sacche dil se bhakti,

Unke saamne sajda kar lu tou ** jayegi ibadat -e- bandagi.



Kayenaat bhi feeki lage unki rooh ki khubsurti ke saamne,

Badi hi fursat se tarasha hai unhe us khuda ne.



Wo mil gye sab kuch mil gayaab kuch nahi chahiye,

Oo panchhi udd ja lai jaa meri ye chitthiye.
Aapse hi har subah ** meri aapse hi har shaam,

Saans ke katre katre mein samaya hai bs aapka naam.



Achha lagta hai jis qadar pawah karte ** aap humari,

Ishwar aapki jholi mein daal de khushiyan dher saari.



Itne khushnaseeb hain hum ye baya nahi kar sakte,

Meri zindagi, meri jaan meri rooh hai sirf aapse.



Khuda ka tarasha hua sabse anmol farishta **,

Qismatwale hain hum  jo mile aap humko.



Aapke har kadam par saath hai aapki mahiya,

Beintehaa mohabbat hai aapse saathiya.



Jis din milengi rooh ki rooh se nazar,

Jaane jaan pe kya hoga asar.



Rakhenge humesha aapko dil mein,

Bhar lenge aapko baahon mein.



Aapse pyaara nahi hai koi sanam,

Saath hai hum aapke janam janam.



Aapki muskurahat hai taaqat meri,

Ye jaan sirf hai aapki sirf aapki.



Hum par haqq hai sirf aapka,

Aapki dadhkano se hai ye dil dadhakta.



Rabba is pyaar ko nazar lage,

Humari jodi humesha salamat rahe.



Meri zindagi meri har khushi hai aapse,

Aapko paakar mil liya us rabb se.



Mangu mai ishwar se aapki khushiyan hai meri ye bandagi,

Har janam bs aapke naam ye meri khubsurat zindagi.
Aapse hi har subah ** meri aapse hi har shaam,

Saans ke katre katre mein samaya hai bs aapka naam.



Achha lagta hai jis qadar pawah karte ** aap humari,

Ishwar aapki jholi mein daal de khushiyan dher saari.



Itne khushnaseeb hain hum ye baya nahi kar sakte,

Meri zindagi, meri jaan meri rooh hai sirf aapse.

Kudrat ne vi taar ohna naal jode ne,

Ohna di muskaan tou savere hunde.

Saddi jindadi da sab tou sohna farishta haiga,

Tuhade baajo ek pal vi jee nahi lagda.

Saddi aadat bn gye ** tussi,

Tuhade bin koch vi ni assi.

Boht yaad aundiye,

Chhetti Chhetti aajo mahiya ve.

Tussi hunde jado udaas te hanere ** jande,

Savere khil jandi jado halka jeya vi tussi muskande.

tuhanu vekh sadda chehra khilda,

Tuhade naal gal karke hi dil nu sukoon milda.

Oh rabb saddi bade imtehaan lenda,

Ek din sannu oo mila jaroor deyega.

Vishwaas saanu sab tou jyada ve,

Har dil di dahdhan ch tussi hi vasde.
