* Mir Taqi Mir - name of the poet

Jis Ki Janib Woh Nazar Apni Uttha Lete Hain Uss Ki Soyee Hui Taqdeer Jaga Dete Hain Towards whom they raise their glance His resting destiny they awaken in a trance Teri Duzdeeda Nigahon Ko Dua Dete Hain Jitne Chubte Hain Yeh Teer Utna Maza Dete Hain For your peeking gazes, I pray The more these arrows wound, the more delighted I lay Jab Se Dekha Hai Unhein Apna Mujhe Hosh Nahin Jane Kya Cheez Woh Nazroon Se Pila Dete Hain Ever since I saw them, senseless I have become What they pour from their glances, a mystery it has become Takht Kya Cheez Hai Aur Laal-o-Jawahir Kya Hai Ishq Wale To Khudai Bhi Loota Dete Hain What is a throne and what are lustrous jewels? Lovers surrender divinity against the rules Aik Din Aisa Bhi Ata Hai Mohabbat Mein Zaroor Khud Ko Ghabra Ke Naqab Apna Uttah Lete Hain There is one such moment in love, indeed! With nervousness, they raise their veil Apni Barbadi Pe Khush Hoon Yeh Suna Hai Jabse Woh Jisse Apna Samajhte Hain Mitta Dete Hain Happy with my own ruin I am, ever since I have learned Who they consider their own, obliterated have turned Apne Daman Ko Zara Aap Bacha Kar Rakhna Sakhat Aahon Se Bhi Hum Aag Laga Dete Hain Your own hem a little, you save and claim With deep sighs, we set the fire aflame Jis Ki Janib Woh Nazar Apni Uttha Lete Hain Uss Ki Soyee Hui Taqdeer Jaga Dete Hain Towards whom they raise their glance His resting destiny they awaken in a trance Translated by Jamil Hussain
