[Thoughts on being ruined in love]



How was my heart so torn apart?
Why tell now when I’ve no heart?

I did rejoice when her I found;
Reality, though, did astound.

I lost the heart that I had won
Fate of love is known to no one

If pain in love is left behind,
Why love at all the fairer kind?

BARABAADEE KA SABAB


kise batalaaoo^ kyaa barbaadee ka meree sabab kyaa hai
nahin jab dil hi seene mein, kahoon mai^ dil me^ ab kya hai.

bade hum shaad phirte the unhe^ paayaa kiye jab hum
Bayaan kaise kare^ ki asaliyat shokhee-e-lab kya hai.

bahut hai^ door jo pahale sadaa pahaloo mei^ rahate the
likhaa anzaam ulfat kaa na jaane kaun kab kyaa hai

agar rusawaaiyaa^ hee hai^ Khalish kismat me^ aashiq kee
Zaruurat ishq karne kii bataaye koee tab kya hai.
