33 This Night Is Endless.....

33  This Night Is Endless; O It Gives Me A Fright


It's dark all over, there is no light
This night is endless, O it gives me a fright

I'm groping and groping, O God, O God
Do send me my moon with her moonlight

My love-sick heart is beyond repair
O tell her to come and see its plight

And the more she pulls away from me
The more the bonds of my love get tight

And the more from me she tries to hide
The more my yearning  she does excite

O send her before it's all too late
With so much crying, I'm losing my sight

So you see with SHAIDA things are wrong
Now only you, O Lord, can make them right

Aata kaheen zulmat maen nazar noor naheen hay
Kat'ti kisi soorat shab e deejoor naheen hay

Aey barq e tajalli maen karoun kaisay taqaaza
Moosa naheen maen, gher bhee mera Toor naheen hay

Day aa kay dilaasa isay khud, daena ager hay
Behlay kabhee tujh bin dil e ranjoor naheen hay

Oajhal hay ager aankh say maeri to hua kya
Dil say kabhee rehti meray too dour naheen hay

Shohrat hay teray husn ki dunya maen kuchh aisi
Kuchh reh kay bhee mastoor too mastoor naheen hay

Aaie hay dikhhaanay kay liay too mujhay jalwa
Kuchh aankh maen baaqi jo raha noor naheen hay

SHAIDA tujhay rehti hay tag o taaz kuin itni
Milta naheen koshish say jo maqdoor naheen hay
