Barha bedonar mato bejechho

When I think of you

there is an ache in my heart.

How deep it hurts, alas

none would ever know.

Day and night,

deep in my heart

I cherish your image,and keep gazing

at the well-remembered face.

How I hope, how I pine

how utterly poor I feel for the lack of you.

How my love for you keeps me wakeful

now in joy, now in sorrow.

My heart and mind have drifted away

with the tide of death.

Whatever was ordained

has happened,

and there is nothing more to hope for.

Jab tumhein main sochta hoon

Zakhm-e-dil gehra hai ki tna

Koi kya jane

Raat din

Main teri tasweer ko rakhoon azeez

Ektak dekha karoon

Chehra tera

Zehan mein jo naqsh hai

Mar r aha hoon kaise ghul ghul kar magar

Ki tna pur ummeed hoon

Ki tna bechaara hoon main tere baghair

Phir bhi tera ishq

Rakhta hai mujhe har dam ji lae Lutf mein bhi

Karb mein bhi

Mera dil , mera dimaag

Maut ke madd-o-jazar mein bah gaya

Jo bhi tha hukm-e-khudawandi,

Hua,

Ab nahin ummeed ki koee ki ran

ji lae- keep ali ve

lutf- happiness, joy

karb-pain

De pare de aamay tora

Ah friends, read out to me

all that he says in his letter.

Let his far-away voice

touch my heart like a spell.

Let it come floating

with the smell of the ripening corn,

where I lie in my lonely room.

Let it play among my tresses,

like the lazy-footed windtired of its wanderings.

Let it sing to my solitary heart

as the blue sky sings

to the lonely heath.

As I stand by my window

let it open out to me

the dark grey stretch of the pilgrim road.

At the crimson hour of sunset

I shall scatter my dreams

in a wealth of colours,

while unbidden tears

will glisten at the corner of my eyes.

Chhoo ke yun guzre mere dil ko

Ki main madhosh ho jaoon

Khoshaa-e-gandum ki khushboo

Tair jane do wahan

Apne kamre mein jahan tanha hoon main

Khelne do meri zul fon se ise

Jaise alsaai thaki maandi hawa

Mere tanha dil ki khati r gungunane do ise

Jaise tanha beehdon ke waaste

Aakash neela gungunaae

Jab kabhi apne dareeche mein khada ho jaoon main Mujh pe khul jane do gehra surmaee pakeeza rasta

Doobte sooraj ki laali mein

Main apne saare rangeen khwab bikhra doon

Kabhi j ab aankh ki koron mein woh aansu

thehar jaayein

Ijazat hi nahin jinko mil i baahar nikalne ki

madhosh- intoxicated

khoshaa-e-gandum- stalk of wheat

dareeche- windows

pakeeza- pious, pure

Amar paran jaha chay

You are what my heart desires

and I desire nothing else.You are my world, my all.

If I have you not,

I have nothing.

If you lack happiness,

go and search for it,

Since I have you in my heart

I lack nothing.

Lost to me

though you be,

my heart will remain

lost to you.

All through my days and nights,

through the years and the seasons,

all my thoughts

will dwell in you.

If you give your heart

to some one else,

if you do not come back to me,

even so may you have

your heart’s desire,

though my heart droop with despair

and I have to be sad.

Tumi jeyo na ekhani

Do not leave me and go,

for it is night.

The road through the wilderness

is lonely and dark

and lost in tangles:

the tired earth lies still,

like one blind

and without a staff.

I seem to have waited

for this moment for ages

to light my lamp

and cull my flowers.

I have reached the brink

of the shoreless sea

to take my plunge

and lose myself for ever.

Rodan-bhara e basant

Never before did I see

a springtime so drenched in tears.The red blaze of the palash

flames with the pain

of my hopeless love.

The jessamine at the bower

robed in leaves of tender green,

watches the hours through

with sleepless eyes

awaiting her beloved.

From the far sky

comes the south wind

sighing the song

of a lonely heart.

All the buds in my body’s bower

struggle in their leafy prison

to burst into flower.

Impassioned, I pound

on the closed doors of life.

With an ache in my heart

I realise

I have yet to give my all

to my love.

Ore, nutan juger bhore

In the dawn of a new age

why waver, wise fool,

in subtle disputes,

and miss your chance for starting

and empty your thoughts

into a bottomless doubt?

Like a desperate torrent

fighting an obdurate mountain gorge,

take a wild leap into your fate,

dark and strange,

win it for your own

through a defiant courage

challenged by obstacles.

Ah, the red red road,

the run-away road of the village,lures my mind away.

It stretches its arms

out to the far distance,

and my heart rolls away

with its red dust.

Out of the home

it seduces me.

It solicits me, alas,

at every lagging step.

It runs away with me

and leads me on to where,

I do not know.

What treasure

it has to show around the corner,

I do not know.

What hazards

it will save me from,

what perils resist and where,

I do not know.

Nor do I know at all

at what point and when,

the road and I

will reach our journey’s end.

O ever-new,

with the first songthat heralds this day,

may my whole being

open up to you

like a flower.

In your vibrant voice

is boundless hope,

and the promise

of life ever-lasting.

The gift you pour into my hand

is wealth inexhaustible.

May the wind that blows

at this sacred hour

bring a breath of your immortality.

May it give mea lease of fresh life.

May it submerge

all that is feeble and worn-out in me.

And may the fountain

of your new light

wash clean whatever in me

is tainted by age.

If you wish to remember me

when you are happy and gay,remember how I used to sing

when the season was bleak

with fallen and withered leaves.

When all around there was

apathy and carelessness,

and the green of the grass

had turned yellow,

and the woodland deserted,all by myself,

I used to sing when the season was bleak


Those of you who travel

by broad daylight,

remember how I used to walk

all alone towards the darkness

of the night withthe evening lamp in my hand

When the call came

from the other bank,

I did not tarry

although the market-place

was deserted by the time

I reached there.

And I did sing when the season was bleak

If you so wish,

I may again set my courseto this side of the ocean

where joy and sorrow

alternate like waves.

Once again,

I may set my raft adrift,

I may resume my play

in the dust of the roadside,

and go chasing after

the chimera of happiness-

even if I have to weep

and be sad.

Again I may set out

on the thorny road,

ready to receive hurt,

ready for lifeand ready for death.

Once again,

you will come

and be my playmate-

though in a new form.

Through loving you,

I shall learn to love

this old world once again.

You come to the silence of my heart,

of a still summer night,

when the full moon envelops

the desolate sky in a deep embrace.

And my youth, my whole being,

the world that I call mine-

are all surcharged with

the glory of your advent.

Like the full moon

sailing across the silent summer night,

your sad eyes keep a lonely vigil

over all my wanderings,

and your anchal envelops me with love.

All my sorrows, all my dreams

are made fragnant

when you come to the silence of my heart

of a still summer night.

Mori lo mori, aamay banshite dekechhe ke

Ah me! I know not what to do,

the music of the flute calls out to me

I thought I would keep house,

and not stir out the whole day.

But the flute-notes call me to the open,

and I know not what to do.

I have heard it said;

In some woodland grove,

by the dark water of the Jamuna,

softly does the flute sound

of a quiet evening.

If you happen to know the way,

do tell me where to find

the one who plays the flute.

I wish to see the smile on his face,

as I offer him the garland I have woven.

I wish to tell him how his flute-notes

echo in my heart.

O Mita, O my far-away friend,

How my heart aches

with longing for you !

Would you ever come to know?

When incessant rain

wipes out all light,

and the dark night is dazed

with lightning, how my heart throbs

With the sobbing wind!


Would my night-long vigil end in vain,

O Mita, O my far-away friend?

Your malati, the one you

planted in my garden,

is in full flower at this season.


Your vina,

the one you tuned yourself,

lies weeping and forlorn on my lap.

No more idle brooding for us,

no more looking after in vain,

come, let us set sail and drift on.

The wind is tempestuous

Our hearts rock and reel.

Come, my love, my mad mariner,

As I awake this autumn morning,

a nameless longing assails me-

I know not why.

The birds on the bough of flowering

Sephali call to each other.

I do not know

what song they sing.

When the wind is so balmy,

so gentle,

why should my heart pine?

Why should I weary of home

and feel like wandering across

what song they sing.

When the wind is so balmy,

so gentle,

why should my heart pine?

Why should I weary of home

and feel like wandering across

the blue of the sky,

looking for magic flowers?

Some one is missing

this autumn morning-

that is why my life appears empty.

I look here, I look there-

and my heart weeps because

she is nowhere to be seen.

She is gone, alas,

to some pale and shadowy land of dreams,

where she sits in some flowery glade-her long tresses let down,

and her eyes streaming with tears

for the pain of parting from me.

If I make songs out of my sorrow,

there is none to whom to sing them.

If I gather flowers and weave them into a garland,

there is none to whom to offer it.

If I wish to give up this life,

where is the one at whose

feet I could lay it down?

And yet, I have a fear all the while

lest she feels hurt-

imagining that

I may not care for her.

Gard-e-pa ki tahon mein tum apni

Kham karo yeh jabeen

Mere Maula !

Gharq kar do sab ghuroor mera

Mere ashko’n ke behte pani mein

Fakhr kar ta hun aap beja main

Khud zaleel ho raha hoon phir phir kar

Mar ta rehta hoon lamha lamha main

Kham karo yeh jabin

Mere Maula !



Maula ! aamaal na karoon tashheer

Zindagi mein yehi mer i khwahish

Har tarah se karo mukammal ab Mujhko apna sa do sukoot sada

Aur meri rooh noor se bhar do

Aao apne kanwal numa dil mein

Tum bachao, chhupao ab mujhko

Kham karo yeh jabeen

Mere Maula !



gard-e-pa - dust of the feet;

kham - to bow;

aamaal - acti on;

tashheer - publi city ;

sukoot - sil ence;

Lover’s Gift

I dreamt that she sat by my head,

tenderly ruffling my hair with

her fingers, playing the melody of her touch.

I looked at her face

and struggled with my tears,

till the agony of unspoken words burst

my sleep like a bubble.

I sat up and saw the glow of the Milky Way

above my window,

like a world of silence on fire,

and I wondered if at this moment

she had a dream that rhymed with mine.

Maine ek khwab abhi bahut suhaana dekha hai

Mere sarhane woh baithi hai badi chahat se

Ungliyon se woh mera sir bhi rahi hai sehla

Jiske har lams se phoota hai sureela naghma

Uske chehre ko bade ghaur se dekha maine

Aur ashqo’n ko sambhala hai badi mushki l se

Kuch zaba’n se main ada kar naheen paya us se

Uske aaghosh mein woh haal hua tha mera

Dafatan neend meri toot gaee kuch aise

Bulbula jai se bane ban ke bikhar jaaye kaheen

Jaag kar khola dareecha to yeh manzar dekha

Kahkashan noor se lipti thi falak ke neeche

Aag khaamosh se aalam mein lagi ho jaise

Maine ye socha ki is waqt mere jaisa hi

Us ne bhi khwab aisa dekha ho shayad

lams - touch;

aaghosh - hug;

dafatan - suddenly;

kahkashan - galaxy, milky-way;

Tumi je surer aagun

You lit the fire of music in my soul,

And that fire everywhere did gambol.

That fire dances in the dead twigs with cadence,

And raises its hands to the heavens.

Stars stare amazed at the air,

And a truant wind races with flair

In the heart of gloom a golden lotus blooms.

What is the charm of the fire who knows?

Aamar sure lage tomar hashi

On my songs your smiles tarry,

As waves dance with the sunrays.

Through the hours I seek your music strains

Suddenly your reed my mind gladdens.

All my chores remain undone, lessons unread.

To embrace your songs I stroll astray instead,

I love to be enchanted by your refrains.

Kul theke mor gaaner tari

From the pier I freed my song-boat in the swell,

On ocean unfurling the sails.

Not where cuckoos sing in the shade,

Not where village girls for water wade,

Where a peaceful play of death sways

I coursed my song-boat that way.

And now my veena and I are alone together

If in the darkness we meet none it does not matter.

It is not the flower to pick from a bough,

It is not a flower swaying in a window

Towards the sky full of wayward tuneful sparks

That way I turned my song-barque.

Gaaner bhitar diye jakhan

When I see nature through musical airs

Then I see her, then I know her.

For then her diction of light fills my sky with delight,

Then in the ground awakes a message rare.

And then she leaving the shell enters my soul,

Then my heart vibrates with the aureole.

Sonorous lines in dulcet sound then lose the bounds,

Then in the crowd I find myself aware.

Dekhta hoon qudrat ko

Mausiqee ki aankhon se

Usko dekhta hoon tab

Usko jaanta hoon tab

Mere aasaman ko woh

Apni pur -masarrat roshni se bharta hai

Tab zameen par meri

Jaagta hai ik muzda

Muzda ghair maamooli

Aur woh todkar saare daayre zamane ke

Dakhi l hota jata hai meri rooh ke andar

Di l mera dhadkta hai saath saath hala ke

Sheer in aur buland aawaaz

Khol deti hai bandhan

Tab hujoom ke andar

Khud ko pata hoon bedaar
