**********************************************************************
Aaa bhi jaao ki zindagi kam hai,
Tum nahin ho to har khushi kam hai !

[Please come soon, life is too short,
If you are not around, every happiness seems less !]

Vaada kar kay yeh kaun aaaya nahin,
Shaher mein aaj roshni kam hai !

[Who promised to come and didn't come,
Whole city is dark tonight !]

Jaanay kya ho gaya hai mausam ko,
Dhoop zyada hai chandni kam hai !

[God knows what has happened to this weather,
It is too hot and moonlight is almost negligible !]

Aaina dekh kar khayaal aaaya,
Aaj kal unki dosti kam hai !

[While looking into mirror, it just struck me,
These days she is not friendly with me !]

Teray dam say hi main mukamal hoon,
Bin teray teri yamini kam hai !

[Just because of you, I am complete and am existing,
Without you, this night is worthless !]
