16  O LOOK AT ME; JUST LOOK AT ME


O look at me with your dreamy eyes
And charm, and enchant and hypnotize

Tonight I have a lot of pain
But why is it so, I cannot explain

And more than ever I feel insane
This mad, mad passion I cannot contain

Just look at my sorry, sorry state
And don’t say it is my cruel fate

Just look at me and my agony
O look at me; just look at me

And come to me and give me hope
And don’t tell your FAIZ that he must cope


                URDU POEM

                  GHAZAL

Chashm e maigoon zara idhar ker day
Dast e qudrat ko baiasar ker day

Taiz hay aaj dard e dil saaqi
Talkhi e mai ko taiztar ker day

Joash e wehshat hay tishnakaam abhee
Chaak e daaman ko ta jiger ker day

Maeri qismat say khhailnay waalay
Mujh ko qismat say baikhabar ker day

Lut rahi hay meri mata e niaaz
Kaash wo is taraf nazar ker day

FAIZ takmeel e aarzoo maaloom
Ho sakay toe yuin hi basar ker day
