**********************************************************************
Ya to mit jaiye ya mita deejiye,
Keejiyee jab bhi sauda, khara keejiye !
[Either you perish yourself, or you kill me ;
Whenever you make a deal, make a perfect (win-win) deal !]
Ab jafa keejiye ya wafa keejiye,
Aakhri waqt hai bas dua keejiye !
[Now you be sincere or you be insincere,
It is the last moment, just pray !]
Apnay chehray say zulfain hata deejiye,
Aur phir chaand ka saamna keejiye !
[Please remove your hair from your face,
Then face the Moon !]
Har taraf phool hi phool khil jayengay,
Aap aisay hi hastay raha keejiye !
[Everywhere flowers will blossom,
You please keep laughing the way you do !]
Aap ki yeh hansi jaisay gungroo bhajay,
Aur qayamat hai kya yeh bata deejiye !
[Your this laugh is like ringing bells,
And what is the judgement-day, please tell me !]
Ya to mit jaiye ya mita deejiye,
Keejiyee jab bhi sauda, khara keejiye !
- Wajida Tabassum
